This bill clarifies that, to the extent permitted by federal law, on and after July 1, 2026, a minor who is enrolled in TennCare medicaid or the CoverKids program remains eligible for TennCare medicaid and the CoverKids program until the minor reaches 18. The director must submit to the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services a request for any federal waiver the director deems necessary to effectuate this bill no later than December 31, 2025. On and after July 1, 2026, this bill prohibits the division of TennCare from subjecting a minor, who is enrolled in TennCare medicaid or the CoverKids program, to a redetermination of eligibility or disenrolling the minor from TennCare medicaid or the CoverKids program unless the division has knowledge to indicate any of the following: The minor's parent or guardian requests the minor's voluntary disenrollment; The minor is deceased; The minor no longer resides in this state; The minor's family income exceeds eligibility limits for TennCare medicaid and the CoverKids program; or Initial enrollment of the minor was based on a division error or on fraud, abuse, or perjury by the minor's parent or guardian in a manner that would disqualify the minor for enrollment eligibility in TennCare medicaid or the CoverKids program. However, this bill does not prohibit the division of TennCare from shifting an enrolled minor from TennCare medicaid to the CoverKids program, or from the CoverKids program to TennCare medicaid, for purposes of maintaining eligibility.
