Expands Medicare health care coverage to all New Jersey residents.

This bill expands Medicare health care coverage to all New Jersey residents, regardless of age, health, or disability status. It prohibits health insurance carriers from offering plans that duplicate Medicare services. The State will apply to the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) for necessary waivers to implement this expansion. CMS will estimate the costs and establish premiums for New Jersey residents.
