HB 1382 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Specifies that children diagnosed with certain conditions must be eligible for MO HealthNet benefits

HB 1382 expands Missouri's MO HealthNet program to cover children under 19 years old meeting specific income thresholds (133% of federal poverty level for ages 1-6, 100% for ages 6-19), removing resource limits for eligibility. It automatically extends coverage to newborns of eligible mothers and streamlines applications by eliminating the requirement to apply for other assistance programs first. This change directly affects low-income children and pregnant women in Missouri who qualify under these income-based standards.
