AN ACT relating to legislative oversight of the Medicaid state plan and declaring an emergency.

Summary

The bill requires the Department for Medicaid Services to submit the current Medicaid and KCHIP state plans, plus all plan amendments, to the Legislative Research Commission each year. Two oversight bodies—the Medicaid Oversight and Advisory Board and the Interim Joint Committee on Health Services—must review these documents, approve them or recommend changes, and report findings to the Governor, who must act within set timeframes. The plans and amendments must also be posted online for public access, and the act takes effect immediately as an emergency measure.
