ICAMA, like ICPC, allows for the reciprocation of medical coverage for a child who moves to Kansas with their adoptive parent(s). As with ICPC, the state of financial responsibility provides the eligibility and verification of the child’s eligibility. Kansas will reciprocate for both IV-E and State funded adoption cases.
