Husky A and the Medicare Savings Program have been Restored

May 11th, 2018


Funding for the Medicare Saving Program and Husky A Medicaid has been restored for 2018.  

Governor Malloy today signed budget legislation adopted by the General Assembly that includes full funding restoration for the Medicare Savings Programs (MSP).  The legislation reverses cutbacks that had been scheduled to take effect in July 2018.  This means that more than 113,000 beneficiaries that are currently getting MSP benefits, will continue to get the same benefits going forward.  However, redetermination must be made every year to assurance eligibility.

Lawmakers also agreed to restore funding for the HUSKY A Medicaid program for about 13,500 low-income working parents.
