This report published in Health Services Research examines strategies that Idaho and Kentucky used to increase preventative care for children. Among the findings, the report concluded that raising state Medicaid and CHIP reimbursement rates for well-child visits increases the likelihood that providers offer these services. The report also includes general background information behind these policy changes.
