What’s in it

AI summary Iowa wants to change how it provides family planning services through Medicaid. The state will ask the federal government for permission to set up a new network that offers the same benefits and rules that were in place in 2017. Once this new plan is approved, the current state family planning program will end.1

Read the official explanation

This bill relates to state family planning services. Division I of the bill requires the department of human services (DHS) to submit a Medicaid state plan amendment to the centers for Medicare and Medicaid services of the United States department of health and human services (CMS) for approval to establish the Iowa family planning network with the same benefits, eligibility requirements, and other provisions included in the Medicaid Iowa family planning network waiver as approved by CMS in effect on June 30, 2017. The section of Division I of the bill requiring submission of the state plan amendment takes effect upon enactment. Division II of the bill repeals the state family planning services program. The repeal of the program takes effect upon receipt of approval by DHS from CMS of the Medicaid state plan amendment establishing the Iowa family planning network.
