``SEC. 2111. OPTIONAL COVERAGE OF TARGETED LOW-INCOME PREGNANT WOMEN.

    ``(a) Optional Coverage.--Notwithstanding any other provision of 
this title, a State may provide for coverage, through an amendment to 
its State child health plan under section 2102, of pregnancy-related 
assistance for targeted low-income pregnant women in accordance with 
this section, but only if--
            ``(1) the State has established an income eligibility level 
        for pregnant women under subsection (a)(10)(A)(i)(III) or 
        (l)(2)(A) of section 1902 that is at least 185 percent of the

        1905(u)(4)(B).
    ``(b) Definitions.--For purposes of this title:
            ``(1) Pregnancy-related assistance.--The term `pregnancy-
        related assistance' has the meaning given the term `child 
        health assistance' in section 2110(a) as if any reference to 
        targeted low-income children were a reference to targeted low-
        income pregnant women, except that the assistance shall be 
        limited to services related to pregnancy (which include 
        prenatal, delivery, and postpartum services and services 
        described in section 1905(a)(4)(C)) and to other conditions 
        that may complicate pregnancy.
            ``(2) Targeted low-income pregnant woman.--The term 
        `targeted low-income pregnant woman' means a woman--

                income level (expressed as a percent of the poverty 
                line and considering applicable income disregards) that 
                has been specified under subsection (a)(10)(A)(i)(III) 
                or (l)(2)(A) of section 1902, as of January 1, 2005, to 
                be eligible for medical assistance as a pregnant woman 
                under title XIX but does not exceed the income 
                eligibility level established under the State child 
                health plan under this title for a targeted low-income

                (1)(A), (1)(C), (2), and (3) of section 2110(b) in the 
                same manner as a child applying for child health 
                assistance would have to satisfy such requirements.
    ``(c) References to Terms and Special Rules.--In the case of, and 
with respect to, a State providing for coverage of pregnancy-related 
assistance to targeted low-income pregnant women under subsection (a), 
the following special rules apply:
            ``(1) Any reference in this title (other than in subsection 
        (b)) to a targeted low-income child is deemed to include a 
        reference to a targeted low-income pregnant woman.
            ``(2) Any such reference to child health assistance with 
        respect to such women is deemed a reference to pregnancy-
        related assistance.
            ``(3) Any such reference to a child is deemed a reference 
        to a woman during pregnancy and the period described in 
        subsection (b)(2)(A).
            ``(4) In applying section 2102(b)(3)(B), any reference to 
        children found through screening to be eligible for medical 
        assistance under the State medicaid plan under title XIX is 
        deemed a reference to pregnant women.
            ``(5) There shall be no exclusion of benefits for services 
        described in subsection (b)(1) based on any preexisting 
        condition and no waiting period (including any waiting period 
        imposed to carry out section 2102(b)(3)(C)) shall apply.
            ``(6) Subsection (a) of section 2103 (relating to required 
        scope of health insurance coverage) shall not apply insofar as 
        a State limits coverage to services described in subsection 
        (b)(1) and the reference to such section in section 
        2105(a)(1)(C) is deemed not to require, in such case, 
        compliance with the requirements of section 2103(a).
            ``(7) In applying section 2103(e)(3)(B) in the case of a 
        pregnant woman provided coverage under this section, the 
        limitation on total annual aggregate cost-sharing shall be 
        applied to such pregnant woman.
            ``(8) The reference in section 2107(e)(1)(D) to section 
        1920A (relating to presumptive eligibility for children) is 
        deemed a reference to section 1920 (relating to presumptive 
        eligibility for pregnant women).
    ``(d) Automatic Enrollment for Children Born to Women Receiving 
Pregnancy-Related Assistance.--If a child is born to a targeted low-
income pregnant woman who was receiving pregnancy-related assistance 
under this section on the date of the child's birth, the child shall be 
deemed to have applied for child health assistance under the State 
child health plan and to have been found eligible for such assistance 
under such plan or to have applied for medical assistance under title 
XIX and to have been found eligible for such assistance under such 
title, as appropriate, on the date of such birth and to remain eligible 
for such assistance until the child attains 1 year of age. During the 
period in which a child is deemed under the preceding sentence to be 
eligible for child health or medical assistance, the child health or 
medical assistance eligibility identification number of the mother 
shall also serve as the identification number of the child, and all 
claims shall be submitted and paid under such number (unless the State 
issues a separate identification number for the child before such 
period expires).''.

        pregnant women.--
                    (A) In general.--Section 2104 of the Social
