Bill > HB2004

This bill requires the Kansas Secretary for Children and Families and the Kansas Secretary of Health and Environment to enter into formal agreements, such as a memorandum of understanding or other written data-sharing instruments, when requested by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) or the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). These agreements will facilitate the exchange of information necessary for federal programs. Once these agreements are in place, the state secretaries must comply with any written data requests from these federal agencies, providing the requested data within 30 days without any conditions or limitations. The bill also repeals the existing law it amends, meaning the new provisions will replace the old ones. This aims to improve data sharing between state and federal agencies for public assistance and health programs.
