The bill amends section 216.136 of the Florida Statutes to enhance the responsibilities of the Social Services Estimating Conference. It specifically requires the conference to develop detailed information regarding the iBudget system for the home and community-based services Medicaid waiver program. This information must encompass various aspects such as iBudget enrollment, the number of current waiver recipients, the size of the waiting list, the utilization rate of program services, and relevant expenditure data necessary for effective budget planning and the drawdown of federal matching funds.

The new provisions aim to improve transparency and planning for the Medicaid waiver program by ensuring that the Social Services Estimating Conference has access to comprehensive data. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
