Objectives: To analyze relationships between Medicaid automatic enrollment for child Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients and health insurance coverage during transitions. Data Sources and Study Setting: Medical Expenditure Panel Study, 2000-2020 and National Survey for Children with Special Health Care Needs, 2001-2010. Study Design: Leveraging variation in SSI-Medicaid automatic enrollment status across regions and over time, we estimate a regression model to quantify associations between automatic enrollment and insurance coverage. We validate our findings in the NS-CSHCN. Data Collection: Our sample includes children receiving SSI for a disability. We also analyze a subsample of children newly enrolled in SSI. Principal Findings: Automatic enrollment is associated with a statistically significant increase in insurance coverage. Expanding automatic enrollment to all states is associated with increases in Medicaid enrollment of 3% (CI 0.9%-6.7%) among all SSI children and 7% (CI 1.1%-13.9%) among children newly enrolled in SSI. We find similar decreases in uninsurance. Analysis in the NS-CSHCN replicates these findings. Conclusions: Medicaid automatic enrollment policies are associated with increased insurance coverage for SSI children, particularly those transitioning into the program. Medicaid policy defaults could play an important role in reducing administrative burdens to improve children's coverage and access to care. KEYWORDS automatic enrollment, children with special health care needs, disabled persons, insurance coverage, Medicaid, Supplemental Security Income What is known on this topic * Gaps in insurance have significant consequences for children's health, particularly for children of color and children with complex health needs. * Automatic enrollment and express-lane eligibility policies increase Medicaid coverage in the general population of children. * During the 2000s, Medicaid automatic enrollment for children on Supplemental Security Income (SSI) led to declines in the uninsured rate and declines in caregiver burden for their families. What this study adds * The uninsured rate is higher (average 5.6%) among children transitioning into SSI than in the general child population (average 4%) * SSI-Medicaid automatic enrollment continues to have a strong relationship with insurance coverage for children on SSI in the post-ACA era * Expanding SSI-Medicaid automatic enrollment nationwide would be associated with a 3-7% increase in Medicaid enrollment (means 82-86%) among all SSI children and new child SSI enrollees, 1 | INTRODUCTION Medicaid provides critical health benefits to low-income and disadvantaged children, yet administrative burden prevents many eligible children from accessing needed care.
