Upcoming Webinar
  
Increasing Health Care Access for Teens through Medicaid & CHIP

January 24th at 3pm

 Although teens are among the healthiest populations in the U.S., they are less likely to be enrolled in health care coverage when compared to their younger counterparts. Medicaid and CHIP provide eligible teens up to age 19 with a foundation for improved health outcomes now and for their future. Join this Connecting Kids to Coverage National Campaign webinar on Wednesday, January 24, 2018 at 3:00 p.m. ET to learn from national and local partner organizations as they share proven tactics and best practices they have used to reach and enroll eligible teens in Medicaid and CHIP.
