Medical Assistance Eligibility for Working Persons with Disabilities

Summary

The bill establishes the Working People with Disabilities program within the Agency for Health Care Administration. It allows adults with developmental disabilities who are enrolled in Medicaid home‑and‑community‑based waiver programs to remain eligible for Medicaid even if they work and earn up to 550 % of the SSI Federal Benefit Rate. The Department of Children and Families must provide written notice about the option and send annual updates.
