AI Summary
This bill requires collaboration between the state's insurance commissioner and the director of the Department of Health to explore options for expanding Medicaid eligibility under the Affordable Care Act. If viable and fiscally advantageous options are found, the governor is authorized to pursue necessary Medicaid plan amendments or waivers to expand eligibility. Before applying for the expansion, the governor must provide notice to the legislature and submit a detailed report explaining the reasons, means, and fiscal impact of the expansion. Any further expansion requires prior legislative approval. The bill also repeals a provision from 2013 and takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
