What the document says
“payment for medical assistance furnished under the State plan (or a waiver of the plan) on behalf of such active duty relocated individual in the military service relocation State (as referred to in subsection (yy)(1)(B)(i)), to the extent that such assistance is available in such military service relocation State”
The new paragraph also requires payment for medical assistance furnished on behalf of the relocated individual in the State the member moved to, so far as that assistance is available there, in accordance with such guidance as the Secretary of Health and Human Services may issue to ensure access.
What the document actually says
“payment for medical assistance furnished under the State plan (or a waiver of the plan) on behalf of such active duty relocated individual in the military service relocation State (as referred to in subsection (yy)(1)(B)(i)), to the extent that such assistance is available in such military service relocation State”
That sentence, in plain words
The plan pays for care given in the new state. It pays so far as that care can be had there.
What this is about
A family that moves can find its old plan will not pay in the new place. This part says the plan pays. The health chief may write guidance on how.

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
