Amend the bill, as and if amended, Part IB, Section 33, DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES, page 361, proviso 33.15, lines 35-36, and page 362, lines 1-7, by striking the proviso in its entirety and inserting / 33.15. (DHHS: CHIP Enrollment and Recertification) The Department of Health and Human Services shall enroll and recertify eligible children to the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) and must use available state agency program data including, but not limited to, that housed in the Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office, to include the Department of Social Services' Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) and the department may use the poverty-related information from the Department of Education. Use of this data and cooperative efforts between state agencies reduces the cost of outreach and maintenance of eligibility for CHIP activities./
