What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the Department of Health Services to convene a working group on statewide coordination of the Medical Assistance program and improving MA recipients’ experience with the MA program in light of changes to MA following the passage of Public Law 119-21. The working group must include one representative each from DHS, an aging and disability resource center, and a multicounty consortium or tribal governing body that administers income maintenance programs; one member of the assembly or senate; one health care provider; and one MA recipient. The working group may also include any other person DHS deems necessary. The working group must report its findings and recommendations to DHS and the legislature within six months after the working group first convenes.
