An Act relating to continuous eligibility for medical assistance for children under six years of age; and providing for an effective date.

Summary

The bill changes Alaska’s Medicaid rules so that children under six who qualify can stay enrolled until they turn six. It also lets 6‑ to 18‑year‑olds who qualify keep coverage for up to 11 months after eligibility is confirmed, or until they turn 19, whichever comes first. The changes only take effect after federal approval of the state plan amendment.
