Bill > HB4927

This bill seeks to provide a continuous period of Medicaid eligibility for certain children in Texas. Specifically, it requires the Texas Health and Human Services Commission to seek a waiver from the federal government to allow children aged 5 or younger who are determined eligible for Medicaid to remain continuously eligible, without additional review, until their sixth birthday. The bill also requires the Commission to adopt rules to implement this extended eligibility period once the waiver is approved.
