Iowa HF355 establishes an easy enrollment health care coverage program using state income tax forms.

Iowa HF355 creates an easy enrollment health care coverage program utilizing state income tax forms. The Department of Revenue, in cooperation with the Department of Health and Human Services and the Insurance Division, will develop the tax form to identify uninsured residents who may qualify for health care coverage. Taxpayers can authorize the sharing of insurance-relevant information, including income and household size, to assess eligibility for programs like Medicaid. The provision of information is voluntary, and taxpayers won't face penalties for not providing it.
