Under this bill, postpartum women who begin receiving substance abuse-related health services under BadgerCare Plus while pregnant remain eligible for Medical Assistance program benefits through BadgerCare Plus for approximately one year after the last day of the pregnancy, subject to approval by the federal government. This eligibility extension occurs without regard to any changes in the woman's family income. Currently, all postpartum women who are eligible for BadgerCare Plus while pregnant are eligible for BadgerCare Plus benefits for two to three months after the last day of the pregnancy, depending on what day of the month that occurs.
