Health Care Security Act.
HB 619, the Health Care Security Act, repeals a law that would have ended Medicaid expansion coverage in North Carolina if federal funding dropped below 90%. This change directly affects the state's Medicaid expansion population, ensuring their coverage remains secure regardless of federal funding fluctuations. The bill removes a specific statutory trigger (G.S. 108A-54.3C) that previously threatened automatic discontinuation of benefits. It does not create new programs or alter eligibility but prevents coverage loss due to federal funding changes. The act becomes effective upon enactment.

MINOR
The bill text was reformatted from a filed version to an official edition, with the primary substantive change being the addition of three new co-sponsors (Representatives Pittman, Cohn, and Jeffers) to the original sponsor, Representative Crawford. This expansion of sponsorship indicates broader legislative support for the Health Care Security Act but does not alter the bill's legal content, scope, or policy provisions.
TECHNICAL
Added three additional co-sponsors (Representatives Pittman, Cohn, and Jeffers) to the bill's sponsorship list, expanding the coalition supporting the Health Care Security Act.
Updated bill identification from 'DRH40323-NL-74A' to 'H619-v-1' and reorganized header formatting to match official edition standards.
Added reference to the North Carolina General Assembly website for a complete list of sponsors, clarifying that the listed representatives are primary sponsors only.
