Increased Admin Fund for Medicaid.

This bill allocates $6.5 million in one-time funding to North Carolina's Department of Health and Human Services to cover increased administrative costs within the Medicaid program. The money will be distributed to county departments of social services to help them manage expenses resulting from recent federal changes. The legislation allows these funds to be used without requiring additional state reporting that would normally be needed for such financial transfers. Effective retroactively from July 1, 2025, the act aims to ensure counties have the necessary resources to handle their Medicaid administrative duties.
