Annotation: This report provides information about the usefulness of Express Lane Eligibility (ELE) to help Congress determine whether to authorize the program beyond September 30,2013, when authorization of the program is currently set to expire. ELE allows states to determine children's eligibility for Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program by using certain information, such as information from other public-assistance programs that enroll children. The report, which also provides background information, compiles some key considerations related to the availability of ELE beyond September 30, 2013.
