No premium or enrollment fee may be charged to the group
What the document says“the State plan shall provide that in the case of a specified individual (as defined in paragraph (3)) who is eligible under the plan, no enrollment fee, premium, or similar charge will be imposed under the plan.”
The section adds a new subsection (k) to section 1916 of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396o) barring, from October 1, 2028, any enrollment fee, premium or similar charge on a specified individual eligible under the plan.
What the document actually says“the State plan shall provide that in the case of a specified individual (as defined in paragraph (3)) who is eligible under the plan, no enrollment fee, premium, or similar charge will be imposed under the plan.”
The state plan must say one thing. No signup fee or premium may be charged. That covers the group named below.
The bar starts on October 1, 2028. It reaches premiums and like charges. Charges at the point of care are dealt with next.
