Community Ideas for Improving Access

The Reaching Children: Building Systems of Care Program compiled outreach and enrollment ideas for the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) based on the experience of the fourteen grant projects funded by the initiative. These projects were completed in 2004.

This resource, entitled Community Ideas for Improving Access, is downloadable from this Web site in PDF format. Community Ideas for Improving Access is intended as a resource for pediatricians and others interested in child health to use in developing methods to improve outreach and enrollment in SCHIP and Medicaid. The listings can be used as a springboard for discussion in program development and as a means to determine what others are doing to improve uninsured children's access to care.
