A bill for an act relating to work requirements for the Iowa health and wellness plan, public assistance programs, an information technology fund, the public assistance modernization fund, and the Medicaid for employed people with disabilities program.

This bill establishes work requirements as a condition for maintaining eligibility in Iowa's Health and Wellness Plan (IHAWP) and aligns similar requirements across public assistance programs, pending federal approval. It specifies exemptions for vulnerable groups including individuals under 19, seniors 65+, people with disabilities (per Social Security), caretakers of young children, those in substance use treatment, and medically exempt individuals. The bill also creates an Information Technology Fund by transferring unspent funds from the Public Assistance Modernization Fund to support system upgrades for program administration. Additionally, it amends Medicaid rules to clarify income and resource disregards for employed people with disabilities.
