The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 5496, aims to enhance transparency in the state budget by amending title 4 of the general statutes. The bill mandates that the budget document must detail all allocations currently included within the Medicaid line item by presenting them in separate line items. This change is intended to provide clearer insight into the multibillion-dollar Medicaid expenditures within the state budget.

The primary insertion in the bill is the requirement for the budget document to include these separate line items for Medicaid allocations, which is a new legal requirement. There are no deletions from current law specified in the text of the bill. The overall goal of this legislation is to improve the understanding and oversight of Medicaid funding in the state budget.
