CCHI is a statewide association that advocates for and supports community organizations that help families access affordable health coverage. The CHI movement began in 2001 to provide low-cost health insurance to children not eligible for public programs. CHIs are local non-profit partnerships that focus on outreach, enrollment, retention, and utilization of health services in their counties. Their goals are to ensure all residents have comprehensive coverage through partnerships, enrollment events, and assisting individuals in accessing medical, dental and vision care.

Editor's Notes
- Who’s in the room? What would you like to take from this session?
- At the height of the CHI movement, there were 28 Children’s Health Initiatives operating in 30 counties, 21 of which provided a Healthy Kids product and several others provided a California Kids product.
- Are goal is to improve community health. 1) Reform and streamline existing enrollment systems in Medi-Cal and Covered California and other programs 2) Maximize enrollment into existing health coverage programs. 3) Advocate for consumers and help them make the most from their coverage. We accomplish these goals through OERU
- Partnerships 1. Examples of partnerships: MOUs 2. Presentations for providers-educating on-the –ground staff about CHI services 3. Close partnership with Social Services/Health and Human Services offices –Medi-Cal eligibility workers 4. Close partnership with County Board of Supervisors 5. Close partnership with funders and x, y, z. Coordination Through OERUC, partner agencies share plans for outreach and identify gaps. Collaboration in reaching the entire population or providing better service. BCSD informational mailing was enhanced by including contact phone numbers in case parents had questions. Messaging “I’m Covered”. “Health4AllNinos”. Same flyer, wording. Interviews. Promotoras Promotoras work with CHI to canvass and offer presentations. They have been successful in recruiting volunteers (other Promotoras) to help with this effort. AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION: How would this look in your community? What are you currently doing? Outreach is used to encourage people to move to the next step… enrollment
- Many outreach events are followed by enrollment events in the same neighborhood where outreach took place. To maximize our resources we follow this format: Presentation, pre-screen sheet, follow-up phone call, enrollment event. Same process used for canvassing or other outreach. Partnering with agencies who serve those with emergency medical needs: CBCC, CCS, HIV/AIDS AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION: How would this look in your community? What are you currently doing? Enrollment is only the beginning… and it is much more cost-effective to help someone retain coverage than to help re-enroll. Also, people who have been continuously enrolled are more likely to utilize services… retention
- Most CHIs conduct surveys with their clients... All surveys look different but all with the objective to assure enrollment in coverage. Received cards? Chose PCP? Experienced barriers? Questions? Advocate! Client utilization survey at 3 months. Distributed to partners. Online system guides user through questions to ask based on clients response. Retention is closely connected to utilization
