AI Summary
This bill proposes a supplemental appropriation to the Department of Human Services, specifically for Fund 0403, to increase existing funding for fiscal year 2026. The bill acknowledges that the Governor's Executive Budget Document for West Virginia identified an unappropriated balance in the State Fund, General Revenue, which is available for allocation. The specific appropriations being supplemented are for "CHIP Administrative Costs" and "CHIP Services," with the bill inserting the fund number 0403, the fiscal year 2026, and the organization code 0511, along with specific dollar amounts for each item. CHIP stands for the Children's Health Insurance Program, a program that provides low-cost health coverage to children in families who earn too much money to qualify for Medicaid but cannot afford private insurance.
