MINOR

The bill was reformatted from a standard legislative document to a structured data format, with the effective date changed from July 1, 2025 to December 31, 2050, and metadata fields added for tracking purposes. This appears to be a technical conversion rather than a substantive policy change to the Medicaid funding provisions.
