We are pleased to announce that Congress passed a bill on January 22, 2018, that includes six years of funding for CHIP, and included an additional four years of funding in their budget bill, for a total of 10 years continued funding for the Children's Health Insurance Program. Therefore, there will be no interruption to enrollment or claims payments for WVCHIP for the next ten years. We realize this may have been a stressful time for our members and wanted to reassure you that WVCHIP will continue at this time to serve our children and families in West Virginia. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our WVCHIP Helpline at 1-877-982-2447.
