This bill mandates the commissioner of employment and economic development to implement new rules that expand eligibility for the extended employment program. Specifically, it allows individuals on a medical assistance waiver to access extended employment services, regardless of the specific waiver service they are receiving. To ensure proper documentation and prevent overlapping reimbursements, participation in the program may require individuals to submit a form that verifies they are receiving distinct services from each program.

Additionally, the bill includes a provision for the commissioner to repeal a specific rule from Minnesota Rules, part 3300.6005, subpart 1, item B, which may streamline the eligibility criteria and enhance the program's accessibility for those in need of extended employment services.
