Earlier this month, Congress passed an amendment to the "National Institutes of Health Reform Act of 2006" that directs the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services to redistribute certain unspent State Children's Health Insurance Program allotments from fiscal years 2004 and 2005. The funds will be redistributed monthly among states facing 2007 program budget shortfalls, as determined by the secretary. Each eligible state will begin receiving funds during the month in which it is expected to face a shortfall. For more information, please visit the website.
