HR 9682: Cure Hepatitis C Act of 2026

The Cure Hepatitis C Act of 2026 establishes a federal program to eliminate hepatitis C by creating a subscription model that allows the government to purchase antiviral drugs directly from manufacturers and distribute them at no cost to specific patient groups. These groups include individuals in Medicaid or CHIP programs, those without health insurance, patients in correctional facilities, and those receiving care through the Indian Health Service. The bill also expands Medicare coverage by removing deductibles and copayments for hepatitis C treatments between 2028 and 2032. To support these efforts, the legislation authorizes funding for state grants to improve screening and treatment access, mandates the creation of a national strategy and performance dashboard, and requires coordination with various federal agencies and stakeholders.

HR 9667: Securing Healthcare and Income Entitlements for Lawfully Domiciled Citizens (SHIELD Citizens) Act

The SHIELD Citizens Act aims to restrict access to federal welfare programs, such as food assistance, Medicaid, and housing aid, exclusively to United States citizens. By amending existing laws, the bill removes eligibility for noncitizens, including lawfully domiciled residents, while preserving access to emergency medical care, disaster relief, and services like soup kitchens. The legislation includes a transition period allowing current recipients to keep their benefits for up to 180 days after the law takes effect, which is set to begin 180 days after enactment. This change directly impacts noncitizen families who currently rely on these safety net programs, narrowing the pool of eligible individuals to citizens only.

HR 9542: Protecting Health Care and Lowering Costs Act of 2026

This bill, titled the Protecting Health Care and Lowering Costs Act of 2026, directly affects individuals and entities impacted by previous Medicaid funding changes. Its primary mechanism is to repeal specific provisions from a 2024 reconciliation law that altered Medicaid funding rules, effectively restoring the program to its state before those changes were enacted. By removing these amendments, the legislation aims to reverse recent policy shifts regarding federal support for Medicaid without introducing new requirements or altering other parts of the healthcare system.

HRES 1403: Expressing the sense of Congress that Medicaid is an important lifeline for the health care of millions of Americans.

This resolution expresses the sense of Congress that Medicaid is a vital lifeline for the health care of millions of Americans, including older adults, people with disabilities, and low-income families. It highlights concerns that recent legislation will cut funding and impose new eligibility rules and paperwork requirements, which could negatively impact access to care. While the bill itself does not change laws or allocate money, it urges the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to provide immediate guidance to state agencies and enrollees regarding these upcoming changes.

HR 9502: Protect Seniors and Veterans from Health Care Fraud Act of 2026

This bill requires the Department of Veterans Affairs to create a data-sharing agreement with the Department of Health and Human Services to prevent duplicate or incorrect medical billing for veterans. Under this arrangement, the two agencies would exchange information about veterans who are enrolled in both the VA system and Medicare, Medicaid, or Medicare Advantage plans to identify and stop improper payments. The agreement would last for two years, and the VA must report to Congress on how effective the data sharing is at reducing billing errors.
