SB 1083 - Current law permits the Department of Social Services to enter into contracts with an entity for the provision of the medical insurance information of certain persons applying for or receiving MO HealthNet benefits. Such information is limited to those insurance benefits that could have been claimed and paid by an insurance policy or are otherwise covered by MO HealthNet. Under this act, the Department of Mental Health may enter into such contracts for the medical insurance information of persons receiving Department of Mental Health services. This act is identical to a provision in the truly agreed to and finally passed CCS/HCS/SB 951 (2018), the truly agreed to and finally passed CCS/HCS/SB 660 (2018), and HB 2716 (2018).
