State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) helps states to insure low-income children that cannot get Medicaid and cannot afford private insurance. The program was created by the Republican-led Balanced Budget Act of 1997. Under Title XXI of the [[Social Security]] Act, individual states are alloted federal funds each year. This act was allocated $20 billion dollars for 10 years. An extension to the program was signed into law by President Bush and continues the program until 2009
