AI Summary
This bill establishes the KanCare bridge to a healthy Kansas program, which expands Medicaid coverage to adults under 65 with incomes up to 133% of the federal poverty level. The bill requires the department of health and environment to administer and promote the program, and provides for a health insurance premium assistance program. The bill also creates a working group to identify non-state general fund sources to fund any shortfalls in the program, and requires various reporting requirements. If federal medical assistance percentages fall below certain levels, the department is required to terminate the program over a 12-month period.
