What is North Carolina's New Children's Health
Insurance Program ?
As of October 1998, families who make too much money to qualify for Medicaid
but too little to afford rising health insurance premiums are able to
get free or reduced price comprehensive health care for their children.
The new plan, " NC Health Choice for Children ," is the same as coverage
provided for the children of state employees and teachers, plus vision,
hearing and dental benefits.
Why health insurance is important?
When working families cannot afford health care for their children, the
consequences can be dire. Babies may not get the checkups that make sure
they are growing healthy and strong. Families may wait until a child is
very sick before seeking medical help, sometimes getting help only in
an emergency. Untreated illnesses can have long-lasting consequences,
such as hearing loss caused by ear infections.
Who is eligible for N.C. Health Choice for Children ?
Eligibility is determined by family income--children must be a part of
a family which makes less than the following federal income standard:
Family Size
Annual Income
Monthly Income
1
$17,720
$1477
2
$23,880
$1990
3
$30,040
$2504
4
$36,200
$3017
5
$42,360
$3530
6
$48,520
$4044
7
$54,680
$4557
8
$60,840
$5070
Each additional person in the family, add $514 per month.
(These incomes are effective April 1, 2002.)
Eligibility determination is based on the preceeding one-month's pay
stubs. Add $514 monthly for each additional family member in the household.
For those whose income is borderline for eligibilty, do not assume that
you are not eligible. There are deductions for necessary child care. The
amounts are $200 per month per child for children under age 2 and $175
per month per child for children two and over. These amounts are the total
amounts that can be deducted per child from the family's earned income.
(In other words you cannot deduct $200 from one parent and $200 from the
other parent for the same child.)
There is a $90 work related expense standard. It is for each family member
who works.
What does it cost?
For the families at the higher end of this income scale there are certain
out of pocket costs. Under federal law, these can never exceed 5% of the
family's income. There is an enrollment fee of $50 for one child or $100
for two or more children. There are also copayments of $20 for nonemergency
emergency room use, $6 per perscription drug and $5 per physician or dental
visit.
For those at 150% of poverty and below there is no out of pocket cost.

Each additional person in the family, add $385 per month.
(These incomes are effective April 1, 2002.)
For each additional family member add $385 monthly. Families at
this income level are also allowed child care and business deductions.
They have no copayments or enrollment fees.
What is covered?
This is a comprehensive health insurance plan which covers not only hospitalization
but outpatient care. Preventive dental, vision and hearing benefits are
available. The following is a summary of benefits:
Hospital Care - Semiprivate room, medications, laboratory
texts, x-rays, surgeries, and professional care.
Outpatient care - includes diagnostic services, therapies,
laboratory services, X rays, and outpatient services.
Physician and clinic services - office visits; preventive
services such as four well-baby visits up to one year of age, three
visits per year between one and two years of age and one visit per year
between 2 and 7, and once every three years between 7 and 19. Immunizations
are covered.
Surgical services - includes standard surgical procedures,
related services, surgeon's fees, anesthesia.
Prescription drugs
Laboratory and radiology services
Inpatient mental health services - requires precertification
Outpatient mental health services - requires precertification
after 26 outpatient visits per year.
Durable medical equipment and supplies such as wheelchairs
Vision
Hearing
Home health care - limited to patients who are homebound and
need care that can only be provided by licensed health care professionals
or in the case that a physician certifies that the patient would other
wise be confined to a hospital or skilled nursing facility. Professional
health care is covered, care provided by an unlicensed caregiver is
not.
Nursing care
Dental care Dental services (Section 2110(a)(17)) Oral examinations,
teeth cleaning, and scaling twice during a 12month period, full mouth
X rays once every 60 months, supplemental bitewing X rays showing the
back of the teeth once during a 12-month period, fluroide applications
twice during a 12-month period, sealants, simple extractions, therapeutic
pulpotomies, prefabricated stainless steel crowns, and routine fillings
of amalgam or other tooth colored filling material to restore diseased
teeth.
Inpatient substance abuse treatment and outpatient substance abuse
treatment -is covered. See the mental health inpatient and outpatient
notes above.
Physical therapy, occupational therapy and therapy for individuals
with speech, hearing and language disorders
Hospice care
Special needs children with chronic mental or physical conditions
or illness may receive services beyond those listed above if services
are medically necessary and receive precertification.
Once a child has been covered under this plan, should family economic
conditions change so that the child is no longer eligible, but the family
wants the child to continue in the program, the family will be allowed
to purchase the plan at full premium for one year.
How do you apply for NCHC?
Applications for this program are available in many different locations
including county social services departments, local health departments,
and on this page. It is a two-page application form which may be submitted
to your county social services department by mail. The form plus any required
enrollment fee (see above) will begin the application process. This application
form can be mailed in or taken to your county social services department.
Each application will first be looked at to see if the child is eligible
for Medicaid and, if not, then looked at to see if the child is eligible
for the new program. If the child is found to be eligible, the application
will be processed and the parents will receive a health card, a benefits
booklet and instructions in the mail. Once parents are notified, the child
is eligible to receive care.
Note : Unlike Medicaid, this program is limited by the amount of
funds that are available. Therefore, it is open only to children on a
first come, first served basis. Once the program is full, a waiting list
will be taken, so it is in the best interest of the child to enroll as
soon as it is possible.

Care Financing Administration web site on Child Health Insurance.

The North Carolina Institute of Medicine
Chartered in 1983 by the North Carolina General Assembly, the North Carolina Institute of Medicine (NC.IOM) is an independent, nonprofit organization that serves as a non-political source of analysis and advice on issues of relevance to the health of North Carolina's population. The Institute is a conveyor of person and organizations with health-related expertise, a provider of carefully conducted studies of complex and often controversial health issues, and a source of advice regarding available options for problem solution.
Mission
The mission of the Institute is two-fold:
To seek constructive solutions to statewide problems that impede the improvement of health and efficient and effective delivery of health care for all North Carolina citizens, and
To serve as an advisory mechanism and a consensus builder, to assist in formation of public policy on complex and interrelated issues concerning health care for the people of North Carolina through coordination and sponsorship of research, collection of information on major issues, the analysis of viable options, and the development of consensus within the membership on solutions which are in the best interests of the public.
Membership and Organization
Appointed by the governor for five-year terms, members of the Institute are drawn from Government, education, business and industry, the health and legal professions, the hospital and health insurance industry, private philanthropy, the volunteer sector and the public at large. Because of its broad membership base, NC.IOM serves to objectively represent the public interest of its advisory and consultative role. As members of the Institute, citizens appointed to serve are not advocates for any particular point of view on issues under study and do not officially represent the organizations with which they are affiliated. The purpose of the NC.IOM is to assure that all aspects of complex health issues are examined and the results of these deliberations are made available to public sector officials with decision-making authority.
The Institute is governed by the Board of Directors which meets on a quarterly basis. The Institute is directed by the President and CEO, who oversees a staff of health researchers who manage various Institute projects. The Institute fosters its research, review and educational functions through collaborative efforts with established centers and agencies within NC, drawing on the expertise of the major universities, governmental units, and the private sector. Each research initiative is headed by a task force, comprised approximately of one-third NC.IOM members and two-thirds non member experts convened to study the key issues and propose solutions to the problems at hand.
Support
NCoIOM receives support from a variety of sources. Since 1998, the Institute has had support through a care appropriation from the NC General Assembly. Financial support for specific projects is obtained either through contracts or through private grants and donations. NC.IOM supporters have included: The NC Department of Health and Human Services, NC council of Developmental Disabilities, Duke University School of Medicine, East Carolina School of Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine, Cecil G. Sheps Center for Health Services Research, Area L Health Education Center Foundations, Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Mary Biddle Duke Foundation, Cannon Foundation, Central Carolina Bank Foundation, Inc., Duke Endowment, First Union Corporation, Glaxo Wellcome, Inc., Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Mary Norris Preyer Fund, Kate B.
