AI Summary

This bill directs the Oklahoma Health Care Authority to modify its existing 1915(c) waiver, which is a special permission granted by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) allowing states to offer a broader range of services through Medicaid than typically allowed, to include expanded postsecondary support for individuals receiving Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers, which are programs designed to help people with disabilities live in their own homes and communities rather than in institutions, and this change will take effect on November 1, 2026.
