Introduced by: David G. Brickley | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY:
Virginia Children's Medical Security Insurance Plan. Requires the Department of Medical Assistance Services to develop the Virginia Children's Medical Security Insurance Plan to provide coverage for individuals, up to the age of eighteen, when such individuals (i) are in families with incomes at 200 percent of the poverty level or less and (ii) are not insured or are underinsured by any policy, plan or contract providing health benefits. The Department of Medical Assistance Services will develop a proposal for this program by December 1, 1997, taking into consideration: (i) the services recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics in its Child Health Insurance Reform Plan (CHIRP); (ii) the provision of services through a network of participating providers; (iii) the development of public/private partnerships; (iv) a schedule for providing universal coverage for uninsured and underinsured children in families with incomes at 200 percent of the poverty level or less, to be phased in over a period of five years; and (v) alternatives for soliciting or requiring contributions from employers. The Department will also include in its proposal criteria for determining "underinsured." Funding for this program will be provided through the Virginia Children's Medical Security Insurance Plan Trust Fund. The Board of Medical Assistance Services may promulgate such regulations pursuant to the Administrative Process Act (§ 9-6.14:1 et seq.) as may be necessary for the implementation of the program.
