This bill mandates the Department of Health and Human Services to provide quarterly reports on Medicaid enhancements specifically for children and pregnant women, starting from October 1, 2025, and continuing through the biennium ending June 30, 2027. The reports will be submitted to the oversight committee on health and human services, relevant legislative committees, and the governor. They will include updates on the department's efforts to reduce administrative burdens for enrollees and progress in expanding access to voluntary, evidence-based maternal home visiting programs. Additionally, these reports will be made available on the department's website.

The bill also includes a repeal of an existing indefinite quarterly reporting requirement found in RSA 167:68, IV(d), which pertains to Medicaid enhancements for children and pregnant women. This change aims to streamline reporting processes while ensuring that essential information is still communicated effectively. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
