House Bill 4224 would repeal the Healthy Michigan Plan work requirements. Under a waiver granted by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the 2018 legislation created workforce engagement requirements for beneficiaries enrolled in the Healthy Michigan Plan (HMP), Michigan’s Medicaid expansion program, and established reporting and verification criteria for those required to prove their compliance with those workforce engagement requirements.
