Establishes a commission to study authorizing New York state-funded health services for eligible seniors and individuals with disabilities residing part-time or full-time in the Dominican Republic

Summary

The bill establishes a New York‑Dominican health partnership commission to examine a state‑funded pilot that would let eligible Medicaid seniors and people with disabilities receive primary and preventive care while living in the Dominican Republic. It targets dual‑eligible New York residents who split time between the two places, aiming to keep their care continuous and lower long‑term Medicaid costs. The study would also explore a formal partnership with the Dominican public insurer SeNaSa.
