The following reports and briefs are based on an evaluation of the Santa Clara County Children’s Health Initiative (CHI) conducted by Mathematica Policy Research, Inc., in collaboration with the Urban Institute and the University of California, San Francisco, through support from The David and Lucile Packard Foundation. The CHI evaluation has three main components:

  • Enrollment Analysis: measures the CHIs impact on children’s enrollment in existing public coverage programs, Medi-Cal (Medicaid) and Healthy Families (S-CHIP)
  • Impact Analysis: measures the effects of Healthy Kids on participating children’s access to care, their utilization of services, unmet health care needs, school-related outcomes, and parents’ satisfaction with their children’s health care and perceptions of care quality
  • Process Analysis: documents key elements of CHI and Healthy Kids, including the goals and challenges of CHI and the qualitative experiences of Healthy Kids participants and their families
  • Title
