    Vol. 32 Iss. 1 - September 07, 2015

    TITLE 12. HEALTH
    DEPARTMENT OF MEDICAL ASSISTANCE SERVICES
    Chapter 141
    Notice of Intended Regulatory Action

    Notice is hereby given in accordance with § 2.2-4007.01 of the Code of Virginia that the Board of Medical Assistance Services intends to consider amending 12VAC30-141, Family Access to Medical Insurance Security Plan. The purpose of the proposed action is to grant eligibility to applicable qualified state employees or their dependents who are otherwise eligible to enroll in the FAMIS MOMs program to be enrolled in the program. Current regulations exclude state employees who have access to subsidized health insurance coverage from enrolling in the FAMIS MOMS program, even if they are otherwise eligible by income and residency. This amendment will only affect state employees who are qualified for employer-sponsored health insurance; wage employees are not eligible to receive a state contribution toward the cost of their health coverage.

    The agency does not intend to hold a public hearing on the proposed action after publication in the Virginia Register.

    Statutory Authority: § 32.1-351 of the Code of Virginia; Title XXI of the Social Security Act.

    Public Comment Deadline: October 7, 2015.
