Medicaid SOBRA Children are children ages 1–5 with family incomes up to 133 percent of the FPL and infants under age 1 with family incomes up to 140 percent of the FPL.

Cochrane–Orcutt adjustment was not used for this model.

Premium variable takes the value “1” after premium was increased and is “0” otherwise. The premium effect is interpreted as the average monthly change in caseload due to the premium increase. Two-tailed p-values are given in parentheses.
