Maddy summaryS 4040 allows property owners in New York City to jointly petition the city to create community improvement projects focused on shared infrastructure.

Maddy summaryThis bill simplifies enrollment and recertification for New York Medicaid recipients needing long-term care. It automatically assigns people requiring community-based long-term care for over 120 days to a managed care plan (based on prior care workers, quality, and location), unless they choose otherwise. It also allows certain groups - like those in managed long-term care plans, receiving personal care services, or getting fixed Social Security income - to recertify automatically without resubmitting resource documentation, using "attestation" instead. These changes aim to reduce administrative burdens for both recipients and the state.
