DP
Summary
The bill requires the state health administration to regularly match Medicaid data with revenue and health records to detect undisclosed lottery winnings, deaths, and residency changes, and to re‑evaluate eligibility of able‑bodied adults each quarter. It also seeks a federal waiver to end mandatory hospital presumptive eligibility except for children and pregnant women, and sets strict reporting and training rules for hospitals that do make such determinations. The changes aim to improve enrollment accuracy and reduce fraud.
