AN ACT to amend the social services law, in relation to medicaid eligibility for youth leaving court ordered placement

AI Summary

This bill amends the Social Services Law to provide presumptive Medicaid eligibility for youth who have been placed in court-ordered placements, such as foster care. The bill states that these youth shall be presumed eligible for Medicaid upon their release from placement, with this presumptive eligibility lasting until their formal eligibility determination is made or for 60 days, whichever is earlier. The bill also specifies that any Medicaid-covered services provided to these youth during the presumptive eligibility period will be deemed as Medicaid-reimbursable.
