Bill overview
This bill prohibits Nevada state government agencies from attempting to recover Medicaid benefits paid to a person who has assets in a Nevada ABLE Savings Account, a tax-advantaged savings account for individuals with disabilities. It specifically prevents recovery from the ABLE account upon the beneficiary’s death and prohibits filing claims against the account. The bill also requires the Department of Health and Human Services to terminate any existing attempts to recover Medicaid benefits from ABLE accounts and seek federal approval for these changes.
