[QUOTE="OTE, post: 6930"] I don't know the answer. I'm facing a similar situation week after next. My first answer would be that for $302 can't husband give up a couple of hours of work? Not worth working those hours is it? Ask job to reduce his hours enough to stay on CHIP. The rules for Medicaid and CHIP vary by state. So unless someone is in your state I don't think they're going to know the answer. What I've done when I can't get a reasonable answer from the local folks is to call the state capital Medicaid/ CHIP office. These are the people who MAKE the policies. They know the answers. But be careful you're not getting some receptionist or 1800 number person. You want to get the people who really know the policies. I'm guessing husband has never been in therapy. You might try explaining it to him by analogy to something he has experienced. eg Let's say husband is a car fanatic ..he's always had the same auto mechanic. That guy quit and now he gets some guy he doesn't trust. he wants to switch shops to get the old guy again but can't because he has a contract (just like an insur contract) with the old place. So he's stuck with the guy he doesn't know and doesn't trust. [/QUOTE]
