Executive session scheduled, but no action was taken in the Senate Committee on Ways & Means at 4:00 PM.
Summary
The bill imposes a new assessment on employers that have at least 100 employees and who had Medicaid‑eligible workers in the prior year. The assessment is calculated using the number of employee‑months and the Medicaid fair‑share capitation rate, and the revenue is deposited into the state health‑care affordability account. The money can only be spent after the legislature appropriates it for premium and cost‑sharing assistance or other low‑income health programs.
