What changed
Oklahoma HJR1067, a joint resolution to terminate Medicaid expansion coverage, passed the House on March 25, 2026 (72-20) and the Senate on April 6, 2026 (14-2). The resolution removes the statutory provisions implementing Medicaid expansion coverage under specified conditions, effectively ending the program for qualifying low-income adults. The bill underwent floor and committee amendments before final passage.
Healthcare providers and state Medicaid agencies must prepare for coverage termination and beneficiary transition. Eligible enrollees will lose Medicaid coverage upon the resolution's effective date. Providers should assess patient panels for affected coverage groups and prepare for reduced reimbursement. The state must establish transition procedures for individuals losing coverage, potentially directing them to other coverage options or safety-net programs.
What to do next
- Review Medicaid expansion eligibility criteria to identify affected patient populations
- Prepare coverage transition plans for patients losing Medicaid eligibility
- Coordinate with state Medicaid agency on implementation timeline and beneficiary notification
