Bill > HB06559

This bill proposes to amend the general statutes to establish a specific payment requirement for undocumented immigrants seeking health care services. Under the proposed legislation, undocumented immigrants would be mandated to pay for health care services at a rate that is equal to or higher than the rate currently paid by state employees for identical medical services. The bill aims to create a standardized pricing mechanism for health care access, ensuring that undocumented immigrants are charged at least the same rates as state employees when they receive medical treatment. By setting this pricing standard, the legislation seeks to establish a clear and consistent approach to health care billing for a specific population group. The bill does not provide additional details about implementation, enforcement mechanisms, or exceptions to the rule, focusing primarily on the basic principle of establishing a minimum payment rate for health care services.
