Both models control for time trends, household income, county or region, and economic conditions. The Kentucky model also controls for managed care enrollment, and whether the child was previously enrolled in Medicaid or nonpremium-paying State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP). Coefficients for the demographic variables can be found in Appendix A.
Other reasons include premium nonpayment.
