AI Summary
This bill provides for the expansion of Medicaid coverage in Wyoming to include all persons described under section 1902(a)(10)(A)(i)(VIII) of the Social Security Act. However, the expansion would only be implemented if the federal government provides at least 90% of the funding, and the state's regular federal medical assistance percentage is at least 55%. The bill also repeals a prior limitation on Medicaid expansion, and it is effective immediately upon completion of all necessary steps for the bill to become law.
