Description
Fostering Futures program; enrollment in the Commonwealth's program of medical assistance. Directs local departments of social services to ensure that any individual participating in the Fostering Futures program is enrolled, unless the individual objects, in the Commonwealth's program of medical assistance, provided such individual (i) is eligible to receive health care services under the Commonwealth's program of medical assistance and (ii) was in foster care and enrolled in the Commonwealth's program of medical assistance on his 18th birthday.

The bill defines "Fostering Futures program" and "individual participating in the Fostering Futures program." The bill requires the State Board of Social Services to promulgate regulations to implement the provisions of the bill. Read the Bill »
