Utah HB0015 amends Medicaid expansion provisions, including changes to eligibility, funding, and program sunset conditions.

Utah HB0015 amends Medicaid expansion provisions by expanding eligibility to individuals with incomes below 133% of the federal poverty level. It changes the conditions under which the Medicaid expansion program will end if federal matching funds are reduced. The bill also modifies the circumstances under which Medicaid expansion will automatically end, such as when the cost of the expansion exceeds available funds. Additionally, it requires the Department of Health and Human Services to prepare a proposal if federal matching funds are reduced and creates a reporting requirement.
