KCHIP Enrollment Performance
Pulaski Free and Reduced School Lunch Program 38 Medicaid and KCHIP Enrollment 27 About the Indicator : Counties were ranked ( from 1 to 120 ) according to the percentage of public school students enrolled in free and reduced lunch program . This data is considered a proxy for the number of low-income and potentially KCHIP-eligible children in a county .
Counties were subsequently ranked ( from 1 to 120 ) according to the percentage of children enrolled in KCHIP or Medicaid .
While the two measures are not directly comparable ( school lunch data does not provide information on children too young to attend school , for example ), counties with large variations in these two rankings (> 10 places ) may want to explore their program enrollment to ensure that children in need are not being missed .
