Copy as parenthetical citation

It is the intent of the general assembly that, in order to maximize the medical care available to Tennesseans who are uninsurable but for the availability of Access Tennessee, federal matching funds should be identified and any applicable federal waiver should be negotiated that would enable the state to provide additional benefits or to provide subsidies to assist with payment of premiums or copayments to persons who are eligible for the Access Tennessee program or to any subset of persons who are eligible for the Access Tennessee program, including individuals with incomes below two hundred percent (200%) of the federal poverty level. It is the intent of the general assembly that any funds expended pursuant to this part in the future shall be administered in conformity with the federal determination of budget neutrality that was made in 2002 with respect to coverage of uninsurable adults under the TennCare waiver and in conformity with any federal waiver that shall be obtained in the future.
