Abstract

Policymakers in Connecticut have used state funding to expand eligibility for HUSKY, Connecticut's Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), to children (through age 15) and to pregnant people who do not qualify for federally funded Medicaid or CHIP coverage because of their immigration status. Policymakers are considering further expansions of eligibility for HUSKY for the remaining population of children and adults. In addition to expansions of HUSKY A (Medicaid for children, parents or caregivers, and pregnant people), HUSKY B (CHIP), and HUSKY D (Medicaid for adults without minor children), policymakers are also considering expanding eligibility for HUSKY C, the program for residents who are ages 65 and older, blind, or disabled, to immigrants. In this study, the authors use microsimulation modeling to estimate the effects of expanding HUSKY eligibility to additional groups by age and eligibility category.

估计进一步扩大健康保险覆盖到康涅狄格非公民人口的影响。
康涅狄格的政策制定者利用国家资金扩大了HUSKY,康涅狄格医疗补助和儿童健康保险计划(CHIP)的资格,将其扩大到儿童(15岁以下)和孕妇,这些人由于其移民身份而没有资格获得联邦资助的医疗补助或CHIP。政策制定者正在考虑进一步扩大对赫斯基的资格为剩余人口的儿童和成人。除了扩大HUSKY A(针对儿童、父母或照顾者和孕妇的医疗补助计划)、HUSKY B (CHIP)和HUSKY D(针对没有未成年子女的成年人的医疗补助计划)之外,政策制定者还在考虑扩大HUSKY C(针对65岁及以上的居民、盲人或残疾人的计划)的资格到移民。在这项研究中,作者使用微观模拟模型来估计按年龄和资格类别将HUSKY资格扩大到其他群体的影响。
