Insurance

Children's Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2009 (CHIPRA or Public Law 111-3) reauthorized the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP).  CHIPRA finances CHIP through FY 2013.  It will preserve coverage for the millions of children who rely on CHIP today and provides the resources for States to reach millions of additional uninsured children.  This legislation will help ensure the health and well-being of our nation's children.
