Explanation

(This amendment recognizes savings in the Medicaid Children's Health Insurance Program (MCHIP) of $1.8 million the first year which is offset by $3.3 million in matching federal funds due to the continuation of a 6.2% enhanced federal medical assistance percentage (eFMAP) in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2021, received in response to the economic impact of the Coronavirus Pandemic authorized in the federal Families First Coronavirus Response Act. The enhanced match rate is in effect through each quarter of the declared federal public health emergency.)
