            (3) Exception for certain states.--In the case of a State 
        plan for medical assistance under title XIX of the Social 
        Security Act which the Secretary of Health and Human Services 
        determines requires State legislation (other than legislation 
        authorizing or appropriating funds) in order for the plan to 
        meet the additional requirements imposed by the amendments made 
        by this section, the State plan shall not be regarded as 
        failing to comply with the requirements of such title solely on 
        the basis of its failure to meet these additional requirements 
        before the first day of the first calendar quarter beginning 
        after the close of the first regular session of the State 
        legislature that begins after the date of the enactment of this 
        Act. For purposes of the previous sentence, in the case of a

        session shall be deemed to be a separate regular session of the 
        State legislature.
