The S-CHIP Debate
listen:
  The State Children’s Health Insurance Program, known as S-Chip has been immensely popular, but has now reached a crossroads: Some want to expand S-Chip, to cover even more families…but others are saying no – that the program should only help the truly needy. We'll look at what the program is and the reasons behind why some want to expand the program and others want to cut it back. Guests

All children without access to health insurance are 'truly needy.' We don't appear to be able to obtain universal health care coverage in this country but we can at least take care of our children's needs. It is important to me that Health Kids has a sliding fee scale for families with some resources. Healthy Kids is a successful program which better meets the needs of children than many employer-based plans with limited coverage and high deductibles and copays. I hope Senators Gregg and Sununu will fight for our children's health care.
