ICPC allows for states to reciprocate Medical coverage for children living with foster parents in Kansas. The children remain in the custody of the “sending state” and must be Title IV-E eligible. The "sending state" provides verification of the child’s citizenship, identity and IV-E eligibility.
Example: Child in the custody of North Carolina moves with their foster family to Kansas. North Carolina pays the foster home and Kansas issues a medical card to the family.
