Supplementary appropriation of public moneys to DHS, Medical State Share Fund
This bill adds $223 million to West Virginia's Medicaid program for fiscal year 2025 by using unspent funds from the Department of Human Services' Health Care Provider Tax, Medical State Share Fund (fund 5090). It directly affects the state's Medicaid operations by increasing funding for medical services provided through the fund. The change amends an existing budget line item without creating new programs or altering eligibility. This is a routine budget adjustment to allocate previously unappropriated state funds.
