The board shall develop and utilize appropriate cost containment measures to maximize the coverage offered under the program. Those measures may include limiting the expenditure of state funds for this purpose to the price to the state for the lowest cost plan contracting with the program and creation of program rules that restrict the ability of employers or applicants to drop existing coverage in order to qualify children for the program.
