AN ACT CONCERNING MEDICAL ASSISTANCE FOR UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS AND HUSKY C ASSET LIMITS.

HB 5091 changes eligibility for Connecticut's medical assistance program by requiring undocumented immigrants to have lived in the state for at least one year and applied for legal immigration status to qualify. It also increases asset limits for the HUSKY C Medicaid program to $5,000 for single individuals and $7,500 for married couples. The bill directly affects undocumented residents seeking medical aid and low-income households enrolled in HUSKY C. These changes aim to target state medical assistance toward residents meeting specific residency and immigration status criteria.
