What this bill would do

This bill, known as the ``Medicaid Program Improvement Act'', aims to amend the Social Security Act regarding the Medicaid program. It focuses on ensuring the reliability of address information for enrolled individuals. Starting January 1, 2026, the 50 States and the District of Columbia must have a process to regularly obtain address information from reliable data sources. The bill also requires managed care entities to transmit address information provided to or verified by individuals directly to the State. These changes are intended to update how address data is maintained and shared within the program.
