HB 619 North Carolina House · 2025-2026 Session

Health Care Security Act.

HB 619, the Health Care Security Act, repeals a law that would have ended Medicaid expansion coverage in North Carolina if federal funding dropped below 90%. This change directly affects the state's Medicaid expansion population, ensuring their coverage remains secure regardless of federal funding fluctuations. The bill removes a specific statutory trigger (G.S. 108A-54.3C) that previously threatened automatic discontinuation of benefits. It does not create new programs or alter eligibility but prevents coverage loss due to federal funding changes. The act becomes effective upon enactment.

This expansion of sponsorship indicates broader legislative support for the Health Care Security Act but does not alter the bill's legal content, scope, or policy provisions.
