Children in Health Care Reform: Where Things Stand

With so much round-the-clock activity on health care reform, it is sometimes hard to keep all the facts straight on where things are for kids.  We released a fact sheet today that we hope helps to provide a roadmap on the child and family provisions in the leading health reform proposals: House bill (H.R. 3962) approved on November 7, 2009 and the Senate Finance Committee bill released October 19, 2009.  We hope you find this "cheat sheet" of the Medicaid, CHIP and subsidy pieces of the bills helpful as things progess (and we will update it once the merged Senate bill is released).
