HR 6148 United States House · 119th Congress

Patients Over Paperwork Act of 2025

HR 6148, the Patients Over Paperwork Act of 2025, repeals Section 71107 of Public Law 119-21, which had changed how states review Medicaid eligibility. It restores the previous rules for Medicaid eligibility redeterminations as if that section had never been enacted. This directly affects Medicaid beneficiaries and state Medicaid programs by reverting to the pre-2024 process for verifying ongoing eligibility.
