How many children will be affected by the changes resulting from section 2101(f)?

We anticipate that this provision will impact a relatively small number of children, and mostly in states without a separate CHIP that already provides coverage for all children above the state's Medicaid income limit. This provision only applies to children who are made ineligible for Medicaid as a result of the elimination of income disregards and are not otherwise eligible for an existing separate CHIP.
