Requires inmate to participate in Medicaid enrollment session 60 days prior to release.

This bill requires inmates in New Jersey state prisons or county correctional facilities to attend a Medicaid enrollment session at least 60 days before release. During the session, trained staff from county welfare agencies or correctional facilities must help inmates complete and submit Medicaid applications. Inmates who choose not to participate must provide written opt-out consent, and staff must still explain Medicaid benefits and how to apply post-release. The law aims to improve healthcare continuity for returning residents by streamlining Medicaid access before release.
