AI Summary
This bill extends the effectiveness of certain provisions related to the Medicare Savings Program (MSP) application to April 1, 2026. The Medicare Savings Program is a state and federal program that helps low-income Medicare beneficiaries pay for their Medicare premiums and sometimes other out-of-pocket healthcare expenses. Specifically, the bill amends a previous law from 2024 that was originally proposed in Senate Bill S. 8650 and Assembly Bill A. 7570. The original law's effective date has been changed from an immediate implementation to a future date of April 1, 2026. The bill itself will take effect immediately upon passage, ensuring that the extension of the MSP application provisions can be implemented as soon as possible, while the substantive changes to the Medicare Savings Program will not go into effect until April 1, 2026.
