Following through on a promise he made in September, Gov. Steve Beshear today launched an initiative to enroll more children in the Kentucky Children’s Health Insurance Program (KCHIP), including a new Web site, easier enrollment, improved efforts to retain children currently enrolled and significant education and outreach efforts. The plan hopes to enroll more than 35,000 children in KCHIP or Medicaid by the end of 2011.
The new initiative meets a goal set by Gov. Beshear to make enrollment easier by eliminating the need to meet face-to-face with a caseworker to apply for KCHIP. Parents now can complete, print and mail an application available at www.kidshealth.ky.gov; request a mail-in application by calling 1-877-KCHIP-18 (toll-free); or return a postcard mailed to them by the KCHIP program.

This is a good Web-log/blog: PATENTLY Tony and NAMI are doing good-- even great-- things to abet the fair-treatment of mental health consumers and stakeholders in mental health.
Thus, I shall keep up with this reading. Those who do-well I try to say-but-well-for; this also is only fairness, and fairness-as-a-while (see the great legal philosophy of John Rawls on FAIRNESS & the GENERAL WELFARE CLAUSE of US Constitution.)
(I esteem the mental health-- usually 'the first to go' in service-cuts to be an issue in due-process/justice-- in those who have the greatest need getting the greater assist. This would be the great guiding-principle in virtually all my conduct.)
