What’s in it

This bill relates to reporting requirements under the Medicaid program. The bill eliminates the required quarterly report by the department of human services (DHS) to the legislative fiscal committee of any savings realized and the amount of any costs paid through the Medicaid preferred drug list program. DHS has revised the process to report program performance. The annual national health expenditure report released by the centers for Medicare and Medicaid services which reflects the results of the new process is posted, annually, on the Iowa Medicaid website.
