Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: The social magic of redefining children potentially both expands prenatal care and jeopardizes women’s health care options and rights. This paper explores the material and cultural consequences of those six states who have adopted the States Children’s Insurance Program (SCHIP) rule change to revise the definition of “child” to include the period of time from conception to age 19. Our analysis suggests that no expansion of benefits to new populations has occurred; rather adoption of the rule change allows these states to use primarily federal rather than state funds to cover existing populations. However, institutionalized identities of pre-persons have been established. What will occur as groups begin to reorient their actions based on this certified interpretive strategy? What are the potential repercussions of this now institutionalized cultural logic of when personhood begins?
