The bill introduced by Senator Roegner mandates the Department of Medicaid to establish a data sharing agreement with the Auditor of State to facilitate the exchange of enrollment and eligibility information for Medicaid enrollees in the aged, blind, and disabled eligibility group. The Auditor of State is tasked with conducting a comprehensive audit to identify any individuals within this group who may be ineligible for Medicaid based on asset limits defined in federal regulations.

Following the audit, the Department of Medicaid is required to implement a corrective action plan aimed at reducing Medicaid spending for this demographic by $2.4 billion during the biennium. This plan includes disenrolling individuals deemed ineligible, creating an electronic asset verification system for applicants and enrollees, and pursuing additional cost-reduction initiatives. The bill also appropriates $5 million from the General Revenue Fund for the audit management and services necessary to carry out these provisions.
