       (Chicago, IL)  --  Heath and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius will be the featured speaker at a Chicago conference today.

       The topic is children's health insurance and the three-day summit is hosted by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

       The agency is hoping to enlist state and local health officials and community organizations in reaching children who aren't insured.

       CMS wants to find these kids and enroll them in either Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program.

       Sebelius will address the National Children's Health Insurance Summit at 9 a.m., Central time in the 5th floor ballroom at the Chicago Marriott Downtown.
