The bill, SB 254, aims to enhance health coverage stability for children in Rhode Island by establishing continuous eligibility for Medicaid (RIte Track/RIte Care) for individuals up to age three. It addresses the issue of "churn," where children may lose their health coverage due to administrative barriers during yearly eligibility redetermination. The bill amends the title of Chapter 42-12.3 from "Health Care for Children and Pregnant Women" to "ACT TO STABILIZE HEALTH COVERAGE FOR YOUNG CHILDREN" and introduces a new section that mandates continuous eligibility for children under three years old until the end of the month in which their third birthday falls. This continuous eligibility may end only under specific conditions: if the individual is no longer a resident of Rhode Island, if the parent or guardian requests termination of eligibility, if the individual dies, or if the executive office of health and human services determines that eligibility was erroneously granted. Additionally, the executive office of health and human services is required to seek any necessary amendments to the Rhode Island Medicaid Section 1115 waiver to implement this continuous eligibility. The act is set to take effect upon passage.
