Relating to the continuation of medical assistance for certain individuals.
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
HB 2474 would amend Section 32.0256(a) of the Human Resources Code, to allow for a person who commits a minor technical or clerical error on a renewal application or other document required for benefits renewal to continue to receive state medical assistance should the person be otherwise eligible for federal services due to an intellectual or developmental disability.
Since is a matter concerning statutory changes to use participation in federal programs as a benchmark for continuing state benefits in the event of user error, Texas Action is neutral toward HB 2474.
