Bill overview
This bill, the LIVE Beneficiaries Act, requires state Medicaid programs to regularly check the Social Security Administration’s Death Master File to identify Medicaid recipients who have passed away. The goal is to ensure that Medicaid benefits are only paid to living individuals, preventing improper payments. States must disenroll deceased individuals from the Medicaid program and cease making payments after confirming their death. This aims to improve the integrity and efficiency of Medicaid programs.
