MEDICAID – Adds to existing law to establish provisions regarding Medicaid eligibility requirements and verification.

Summary

The measure would require most non‑elderly adults to prove three months of work, training, or volunteer service before enrolling in Medicaid and would prohibit self‑attestation for income, residency, identity, household composition, or citizenship. It also tightens rules on who can receive benefits, adds checks for out‑of‑state enrollment, deceased members, and limits retroactive coverage, aiming to reduce fraud and costs. The bill failed to pass and was referred to the Health & Welfare Committee.
