S 2943 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires DOBI to establish integrated enrollment platform for State-based health insurance exchange and NJ FamilyCare program.

S 2943 requires New Jersey's Department of Banking and Insurance (DOBI) to create an integrated enrollment platform connecting the state's health insurance exchange with the NJ FamilyCare program (which includes Medicaid and CHIP). This directly affects New Jersey residents applying for health coverage through the Individual Health Coverage Program, Small Employer Health Benefits Program, or NJ FamilyCare. The bill mandates DOBI, in coordination with the Department of Human Services, to integrate the exchange with Medicaid eligibility systems so applicants can determine eligibility for all programs through one platform. It also establishes a nine-member advisory committee with health insurance expertise to guide implementation, including consumer advocates and industry representatives.
