CHIP
Individuals enrolled in the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) must complete the administrative renewal process explained in B-122.4, Medical Program Administrative Renewals.
Depending on the renewal status outcome and client action, final eligibility determinations for CHIP may be made manually by advisors processing renewal documents or automatically by the system.
For individuals required to return a renewal packet, advisors must process the manual renewal as explained in B-122.4.2, Processing a Manual Renewal, while following the timelines explained in D-1630, Timely Redeterminations, and D-1631, Redetermination Processing Time Frames.
CHIP Perinatal
There is no redetermination of CHIP perinatal coverage. The household is mailed a packet during the ninth month of eligibility, allowing the household to apply for medical coverage for the child.
