  • Title: State Children's Health Insurance Program; eligibility for prenatal care and other health services for unborn children. Final rule.
    Author: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), HHS.
    Journal: Fed Regist; 2002 Oct 02; 67(191):61955-74. PubMed ID: 12361063.
    Abstract:
    In order to provide prenatal care and other health services, this final rule revises the definition of "child" under the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) to clarify that an unborn child may be considered a "targeted low-income child" by the State and therefore eligible for SCHIP if other applicable State eligibility requirements are met. Under this definition, the State may elect to extend eligibility to unborn children for health benefits coverage, including prenatal care and delivery, consistent with SCHIP requirements.
