HR 9518: Health Savings for Families Act of 2026

The Health Savings for Families Act of 2026 allows individuals to contribute money to their own Health Savings Accounts even if their spouse already has a similar health flexible spending account. This change removes the previous restriction that prevented dual contributions when a spouse maintained a comparable health reimbursement arrangement. The provision applies to plan years starting after December 31, 2026, and limits the spouse's account reimbursements to expenses that would have been eligible if the individual were not involved.

S 5059: A bill to amend the Public Health Service Act to streamline the review of biosimilar biological products.

This bill modifies the Public Health Service Act to simplify the process for reviewing biosimilar drugs, which are generic versions of existing biologic medicines. By removing a specific requirement and renumbering a related clause, the legislation aims to reduce regulatory hurdles for manufacturers seeking approval for these products. The change directly impacts pharmaceutical companies and the FDA, potentially allowing for a more efficient evaluation of biosimilars without altering the fundamental safety standards.

HR 9839: STRONG Kids Act

The STRONG Kids Act establishes a new grant program to support youth sports organizations in improving health outcomes and increasing access to physical activity for children under 18. The Department of Health and Human Services will award competitive grants to national and regional nonprofits, which must then distribute smaller subgrants to local groups for specific initiatives such as coach training, injury prevention, and safety protocols. Eligible recipients can use funds to lower barriers for underserved populations, implement background checks to prevent abuse, and promote positive character development through structured sports programs. The legislation authorizes funding starting in fiscal year 2027 and requires organizations to prioritize youth with limited resources while submitting regular reports to Congress on program effectiveness.

HR 9583: Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies Act of 2026

The Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies Act of 2026 directs U.S. foreign assistance toward reducing preventable deaths among mothers and children in priority countries by 2030. A central provision of the bill is the scaling up of multiple micronutrient supplement prenatal vitamins, which the legislation identifies as a highly cost-effective intervention to improve birth outcomes and reduce anemia. To implement this, the relevant foreign assistance agency must select specific countries based on malnutrition rates and vulnerability, then submit annual reports to Congress detailing progress, funding allocations, and coordination with other health programs. The act authorizes up to $150 million annually from 2026 through 2030 to support these initiatives and requires the development of a comprehensive five-year strategy with specific targets for increasing coverage of life-saving health interventions.

HR 9823: Alzheimer’s Early Detection Act of 2026

The Alzheimer's Early Detection Act of 2026 requires private health insurance plans and Medicaid programs to cover specific tests that detect biological markers for Alzheimer's disease. These tests, which can be performed on blood or tissue samples, are intended to help with early detection, diagnosis, and treatment management of the condition. The law mandates that insurers treat these tests like other standard medical benefits, meaning patients cannot face higher costs, separate waiting periods, or step therapy hurdles specifically for this care. Additionally, the bill requires insurance companies to approve requests for these tests within 72 hours and directs the National Institutes of Health to study the value of such testing over three years.

HR 9811: Anti-Fraud Fund Act of 2026

The Anti-Fraud Fund Act of 2026 increases funding for the Health Care Fraud and Abuse Control Account by $7 billion annually from fiscal year 2027 through 2030. This additional money is intended to support the government's efforts in detecting and preventing fraud within the healthcare system. The bill modifies existing laws to ensure these funds are available for the specified period without altering other spending limits.

HR 9594: No PFAS in Cosmetics Act

The No PFAS in Cosmetics Act prohibits the sale of cosmetics in the United States if they contain intentionally added perfluoroalkyl or polyfluoroalkyl substances. This ban specifically targets fluorinated chemicals that manufacturers add to products for a functional or technical purpose, as well as certain breakdown products of those chemicals. The regulation will take effect on January 1, 2027, applying to all cosmetic products and their packaging. Additionally, the bill repeals a previous provision from the Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act of 2022 to ensure consistency with this new restriction.

HR 9869: FECA Modernization and Cost Containment Act of 2026

The FECA Modernization and Cost Containment Act of 2026 updates the Federal Employees' Compensation Act to lower costs and improve care for injured federal workers. It requires federal agencies to contract with managed care networks, which will direct employees to specific providers for medical services except in emergencies. These networks must follow standardized treatment protocols, limit fees to established schedules, and submit annual reports on cost savings and provider performance. The bill also mandates the creation of a review board to monitor compliance and authorizes the use of predictive analytics to detect fraud in claims.

HR 9801: ABLE MATCH (Making Able a Tool to Combat Hardship) Act

This bill, known as the ABLE MATCH Act, aims to help individuals with disabilities save money by providing a federal tax credit that is automatically deposited into their ABLE savings accounts. The program targets low-income earners by offering a 100% match on up to $2,000 of annual contributions, provided their income falls below 200% of the federal poverty limit, with the credit amount gradually decreasing for higher incomes. To support wider adoption, the legislation also authorizes the Treasury to award $5 million annually in grants to states for promoting these accounts and includes a requirement for collecting demographic data on account holders. These changes are designed to increase financial security for people with disabilities by encouraging savings without jeopardizing their eligibility for other government benefits.

S 5037: MediKids Act

The MediKids Act expands Medicaid eligibility to cover children and young adults up to age 26, regardless of their immigration status, and establishes a system for automatic enrollment of newborns that allows parents to opt out if other qualifying health coverage is available. The bill ensures that states provide full federal funding for these expanded groups and extends specific pediatric health services, such as Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic, and Treatment (EPSDT), to individuals up to age 26. Additionally, the legislation modifies tax rules to prevent this new Medicaid coverage from counting as minimum essential coverage for the purpose of individual health insurance tax penalties.
