HHS' CHIP Program Launches Medicaid.gov

BY: | Nation | December 5, 2011



The Center for Medicaid and Children Health Insurance Program (CHIP) Services launched a new website last week.

The website features guidance on federal policies, statistical breakdowns of Medicaid and CHIP programs, a State Resource Center and information about the implementation of the Affordable Care Act.

In a letter introducing the website, Cindy Mann, director of the Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services, asked for feedback on how to improve its functionality and content. "We are a work in progress," Mann said. "We wanted to make the key elements available as quickly as possible and we have plans for ongoing improvements."

The new website is located at http://www.medicaid.gov/.
