HB 2604 removes an outdated reference to July 1, 2000, from Tennessee's Medicaid (TennCare) application forms. This change affects applicants seeking TennCare uninsured or uninsurable coverage by updating the forms to reflect current requirements under the Medical Assistance Act. The bill amends multiple sections of Tennessee law (Titles 4, 7, 8, 12, 14, 33, 47, 52, 56, 62, 63, 68, and 71) to delete the obsolete date.
