The report shall contain recommendations for further action to facilitate accountability and to achieve the policy objectives outlined in this Section. The report shall be completed and posted on the Department's website by no later July 1, 2026 and a copy of the report shall be sent to the Secretary of Human Services and other relevant stakeholders.
For the purposes of this Section, "Medicare Part A Buy-In Agreement" means an agreement authorized by Section 1395v of Title 42 of the United States Code under which the State shall pay Medicare Part A premiums for qualified individuals who are enrolled in both the Medicare Program and the State Medicaid program.
