Authorizes individuals receiving hospice services to enroll in managed long term care plans

Summary

The bill lets people who are receiving hospice care enroll in a managed long‑term care (MLTC) plan and makes clear they do not have to leave the MLTC if they later choose hospice. It also requires the health department to set coordination standards and issue guidance so care is continuous and information is shared. The change aims to improve care coordination for seniors and seriously ill patients.
