Budget Procedures - As enacted, authorizes, in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, transfers from the Access Tennessee health insurance program fund, created or referenced in the Access Tennessee Act of 2006. - Amends TCA Title 3; Title 4; Title 5; Title 6; Title 7; Title 8; Title 9; Title 10; Title 11; Title 12; Title 13; Title 16; Title 17; Title 18; Title 29; Title 33; Title 36; Title 37; Title 38; Title 39; Title 40; Title 41; Title 43; Title 44; Title 45; Title 47; Title 48; Title 49; Title 50; Title 53; Title 54; Title 55; Title 56; Title 57; Title 58; Title 59; Title 60; Title 61; Title 62; Title 63; Title 64; Title 65; Title 66; Title 67; Title 68; Title 69; Title 70 and Title 71.

SB 1429 amends Tennessee Code Annotated Section 71-5-1305 to change payment frequency requirements from "monthly" to "monthly or quarterly" for certain state budget processes. This procedural adjustment aligns administrative procedures with the annual appropriations act. The change directly affects state budget offices and agencies managing fund transfers under the Access Tennessee health insurance program. It does not alter program benefits or eligibility but streamlines administrative reporting for fiscal year 2025. The bill was enacted without substantive policy changes, focusing solely on updating statutory language.
