relative to financial eligibility for the Medicare savings program.
SB 122 would have adjusted the income limits for the Medicare Savings Program, which helps low-income seniors cover Medicare costs like premiums and deductibles. The bill aimed to update eligibility thresholds to better align with current economic conditions, directly affecting seniors with limited financial resources. It passed committee unanimously (6-0) but was ultimately deemed "Inexpedient to Legislate" by the Senate on October 31, 2025, preventing it from moving forward. The bill did not become law.
