Moving Forward

How does my state move forward?

Assess the potential. Use the calculator to assess the amount of funding that may be available to your state.
 
Review the options. Consider the eligibility and enrollment activities described in the CHIP bill. These options have different costs and benefits, and each has a different potential for improving enrollment and retention. Lewin can help your state evaluate the options, estimate potential costs, and model enrollment impacts.
 
Execute effectively and efficiently. Eligibility and enrollment activities require thorough implementation to streamline the application and renewal processes to meet required enrollment thresholds for the bonus payments. Lewin has a long history of helping states streamline eligibility and enrollment activities and gaining stakeholder support.
“[The Lewin Group project manager] was a great asset in brainstorming about policy options.... It was great to have a knowledgeable manager to bounce ideas and options for discussion as an aid to setting project priorities. It was also good to benefit from Lewin’s nationwide experience….”   STATE MEDICAID AGENCY
