2021 Bill(s)

* HCS SS SB 43
Sponsor: White, Bill
Status: Back to H
Description: Require health insurance cover, the same services as Medicaid. HA 2 would extend for one year a mechanism that generates more than $2 billion in federal funds for Medicaid. The Senate rejected the change and requested a H conference (which the House did not take up on the last day of the session). The SS limits the bill to cover hearing aids for children. HA 2 extends the termination date of a mechanism by which the state imposes a tax on health care providers to get a higher Medicaid federal payment which then is returned back to the providers.
See: 
  • Senate roll call - SS HCS SB 43 (05/13/2021): Rejection of the House version to extend the sunset of law by which the state gets more than $2 billion in federal funds for Medicaid because of a House amendment to continue Planned Parenthood.
  • House roll call - SS HCS SB 43 (05/13/2021): Adoption of a bill to which the House attached an amendment to extend the Sept. 2021 sunset of a mechanism by which the state gets more than $2 billion in federal funds for Medicaid.

  • Note: The descriptions of bills, amendments and roll-call votes are written by MDN journalists. MDN's database may not include committee assignments of bills made on the last day of the session since it is too late for the committee to act on the bill and, thus, the delayed assignment has no practical effect.
