MEDICAID: Requests the La. Department of Health to include certain information in its Monthly Medicaid Forecast Report

This resolution requested that the Louisiana Department of Health provide more detailed breakdowns of Medicaid spending in its monthly budget reports, specifically asking for separate data on managed care payments, pharmacy rebates, and interagency transfers. The bill aimed to increase transparency for lawmakers and auditors by requiring the department to disaggregate large, currently combined financial categories without needing new data collection or funding. Although the measure sought to enhance oversight of the state's largest budget program, it was rejected by the House of Representatives with a vote of 7 to 89.
