 IN ASSEMBLY

 May 15, 2026
 ___________

 Introduced by COMMITTEE ON RULES -- (at request of M. of A. Hevesi) --
 read once and referred to the Committee on Health

 AN ACT to amend the social services law, in relation to obtaining
 certain employment and income data of individuals eligible for medical
 assistance

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Section 366 of the social services law is amended by adding
 2 a new subdivision 17 to read as follows:
 3 17. To improve decision timeliness, achieve cost savings and ensure
 4 prompt provision of services to eligible beneficiaries, the commissioner
 5 of health may obtain current employment and income data of an individual
 6 eligible for medical assistance under this title from such individual's
 7 employer through a third-party commercial consumer reporting agency, as
 8 permitted by the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. sec. 1681
 9 et seq.), in order to supplement current employment and state income
 10 records. The commissioner of health may obtain such current employment
 11 and income data through a Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services
 12 information exchange for initial and ongoing Medicaid eligibility
 13 assessments.
 14 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
