To provide assisted living assistance through Medicaid and low-income housing tax credit.
HB8662 aims to expand access to assisted living by integrating Medicaid and low-income housing tax credits. This bill intends to help people who need assistance with daily activities but do not require full-time medical care, allowing them to live more independently. It would particularly benefit seniors and individuals with disabilities who are struggling with housing costs.
The bill was introduced on May 4, 2026, by Max Miller and co-sponsored by Darin LaHood, Mike Carey, and Erin Houchin. After its introduction, it was referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means and the Committee on Energy and Commerce. These committees will review the bill's provisions and decide on further action.
Currently, HB8662 is in the early stages of the legislative process. It has been introduced and referred to the appropriate committees for consideration. Future steps will involve committee review, possible amendments, and a vote in the House. The bill's progress will be tracked closely, with updates provided as it moves through the legislative process.
