Maddy summaryThis bill creates a new statewide Medicaid plan specifically for children and families, requiring the state to issue a request for proposals to select a provider by December 2024. The legislation defines this new plan as distinct from standard Medicaid plans and allows the state to require automatic enrollment in this specialty plan unless a social services official determines that a different plan is better for the child. Additionally, the bill establishes a closed network of providers for specialized services like residential treatment and intensive in-home care within this new plan, while also clarifying rules about when certain groups can leave their current Medicaid plans and what services must be covered.

Maddy summaryThis bill changes how members of the Macon County Board of Commissioners are elected in North Carolina. It increases the board size from three to five members and establishes a new system where two members are chosen by all voters in the county rather than from specific districts. The law also sets a schedule for these elections, ensuring that one district representative and one at-large member are elected every four years starting in 2026. This update applies to future elections and does not affect the current terms of existing commissioners.
