Supplemental appropriation to Department of Human Services
SB 788 provides additional funding from unspent federal funds to West Virginia's Department of Human Services for the current fiscal year. It increases specific line items: $27 million for general department operations, $677,086 for CHIP administrative costs, and $4.46 million for CHIP services. This funding directly supports the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), helping cover healthcare costs for low-income children and families. The bill does not create new programs but allocates existing federal funds to maintain current services.
