If it does the chip reader will show ID number and they call the national register to find out the owner's name and phone number. Chips cost about $25. Inserted with a small injector device, and it doesn't hurt or bother the animal at all.
Our cat has a chip, and she isn't a outdoor cat at all.

My two dogs are chipped. My 18 year old cat is not - but all she does is sleep on the back of the sofa all day, so I'm not worried about her attempting to run out of the house.
