Stabilize Medicaid and CHIP Coverage Act

This bill aims to expand continuous health coverage for individuals enrolled in Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). Currently, continuous 12-month enrollment is primarily for children; this legislation extends that provision to all eligible individuals , regardless of age. Specifically, the bill amends Titles XIX and XXI of the Social Security Act by removing age-specific language from the continuous enrollment provisions. For Medicaid, it strikes references limiting continuous enrollment to individuals under 19, and for CHIP, it replaces "targeted low-income child" with "individual." These changes ensure that once enrolled, beneficiaries can maintain their coverage for a full year, reducing gaps in care and administrative burdens.
