Separate CHIP Enrollment by Month and State

This dataset includes total enrollment in separate CHIP (S-CHIP) programs by month and state from April 2023 forward. Sources: T-MSIS Analytic Files (TAF) and state-submitted enrollment totals. The data notes indicate when a state’s monthly total was a state-submitted value, rather than from T-MSIS. Methods: Enrollment includes individuals enrolled in S-CHIP at any point during the coverage month, excluding those enrolled in dental-only coverage. The S-CHIP enrollment in this report also excludes enrollees covered by Medicaid expansion CHIP, a program in which a state receives federal funding to expand Medicaid eligibility to optional targeted low-income children that meets the requirements of section 2103 of the Social Security Act. If an individual is enrolled in both Medicaid or Medicaid-expansion CHIP and S-CHIP in a given month, TAF picks the program in which they were last enrolled. Unless S-CHIP enrollment counts are replaced with a state-submitted value, each state's monthly S-CHIP enrollment is equal to the number of unique people in TAF with a CHIP_CODE = 3 (S-CHIP) and ELGBLTY_GRP_CD not equal to ‘66’ (Children Eligible for Dental Only Supplemental Coverage). More information about TAF is available at https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/data-systems/macbis/medicaid-chip-research-files/transformed-medicaid-statistical-information-system-t-msis-analytic-files-taf/index.html. Note: A historic dataset with S-CHIP enrollment by month and state from April 2023 to June 2024 is also available at: https://data.medicaid.gov/dataset/d30cfc7c-4b32-4df1-b2bf-e0a850befd77. This historic dataset was created to fulfill reporting requirements under section 1902(tt)(1) of the Social Security Act, which was added by section 5131(b) of subtitle D of title V of division FF of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (P.L. 117-328) (CAA, 2023). Please note that the methods used to count S-CHIP enrollees differ slightly between the two datasets; as a result, data users should exercise caution if comparing S-CHIP enrollment across the two datasets. State notes: Alaska, District of Columbia, Hawaii, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, South Carolina, Vermont, and Wyoming do not have S-CHIP programs. Maryland has an S-CHIP program for the from conception to end of pregnancy group that began in July 2023; April 2023 - June 2023 data for Maryland represents retroactive coverage. Oregon moved all its S-CHIP enrollees, other than those in the from conception to the end of pregnancy group, to a Medicaid-expansion CHIP program effective January 1, 2024.
