- On December 29, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (P.L. 117-328).1 The Consolidated Appropriations Act includes a number of provisions related to Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP). This includes, among others, delinking the Medicaid continuous coverage requirement from the COVID-19 public health emergency and starting its unwinding after March 31, 2023; requiring all states to provide 12 months of continuous eligibility for children in both Medicaid and CHIP; extending federal funding for CHIP for an additional two years; making permanent a state option to provide 12 months postpartum coverage in Medicaid and CHIP; significantly increasing federal Medicaid funding for Puerto Rico and the other territories over the next five years; and instituting several Medicaid and CHIP improvements related to mental health and juvenile justice. This issue brief explains the Consolidated Appropriation Act’s Medicaid and CHIP provisions.
