This legislation was amended to add HB 707, which prohibits county officials or employees from using money or human resources or assets to advocate or influence citizens to support the voluntary expansion of Medicaid. Similarly, counties would be prohibited from starting their own health care exchange or participating in a health care exchange provided by a nonprofit organization. This legislation also prohibits the Insurance Commissioner from investigating of enforcing any health care related provisions of the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010. |
