Maintaining Medicaid for Individuals in Public Institutions

This act ensures that individuals in public institutions, regardless of age, do not automatically lose their Medicaid health insurance. Instead of full termination, their coverage will only be suspended during their stay, making it easier for them to access medical care upon release.
Key points
Medicaid coverage is suspended, not terminated, for individuals in public institutions.
The change applies to all ages, ensuring continuity of healthcare upon re-entry into society.
Facilitates access to essential medical care after leaving institutions, supporting reintegration.
