The Children's Access Program seeks to enroll eligible children living in Wake County in the Medicaid and NC Health Choice Programs based on the knowledge that children with health insurance have better health outcomes than children without coverage. This project began in 2002 and has a staff of seven out reach workers whose goals include both enrollment in Medicaid and NC Health Choice. The Program also seeks to implement changes to streamline the processes involved in eligibility determination for the Medicaid and NC Health Choice Programs. The Program enrolled over 3800 children in the Medicaid and NC Health Choice Programs during 2005. The current grant funded by the Rex Endowment continues through June 2007.
