B.  Beginning in fiscal year 2013-14, the department shall allocate $75,000 from fees 
collected by the department pursuant to section 13007, subsection 1 each fiscal year to

16.  English learner budgetary hardship adjustment.  Beginning in fiscal year 2022-
23, the following provisions apply to adjustments for English learner budgetary hardships. 
A.  If a school administrative unit determined eligible pursuant to paragraph B petitions 
the commissioner and demonstrates that the unexpected education costs of increased 
English learner student enrollment will cause a budgetary hardship, the commissioner 
may provide an amount equal to that school administrative unit’s most recent state 
share of the increased English learner weighted allocation, as calculated pursuant to 
section 15675, subsection 1, resulting from the increased enrollment.  If the school 
administrative unit’s most recent state share percentage is less than the statewide state 
share percentage under section 15671, subsection 1, paragraph B, then the adjustment 
amount is equal to the most recent state share percentage. 
B.  The commissioner may determine that a school administrative unit is eligible for 
an adjustment under paragraph A if: 
(1)  The increased student enrollment is a result of a student's becoming the fiscal 
responsibility of the school administrative unit after the passage of the annual 
budget for the current fiscal year; and 
(2)  The school administrative unit's unexpected enrollment increase results in an 
increase of 5% or more in English learner weighted allocation, as calculated 
pursuant to section 15675, subsection 1. 
C.  The funds for adjustments under paragraph A are limited to the amount appropriated 
by the Legislature for that purpose. 
D.  A school administrative unit may expend the funds from the adjustment under 
paragraph A without seeking approval of the school administrative unit’s legislative 
body.

Medicaid under section 3174‑G and below the maximum eligibility level established under 
paragraphs A and B,  and who meet the requirements set forth in paragraph C and for whom 
premiums are paid under subsection 5. 
A.  The maximum eligibility level, subject to adjustment by the commissioner under 
paragraph B, is 200% 300% of the nonfarm income official poverty line. 
B.  If the commissioner has determined the fiscal status of the Cub Care program under 
subsection 8 and has determined that an adjustment in the maximum eligibility level is 
required under this paragraph, the commissioner shall adjust the maximum eligibility 
level in accordance with the requirements of this paragraph. 
(1)  The adjustment must accomplish the purposes of the Cub Care program set 
forth in subsection 1. 
 (2)  If Cub Care program expenditures are reasonably anticipated to exceed the 
program budget, the commissioner shall lower the maximum eligibility level set in 
paragraph A to the extent necessary to bring the program within the program 
budget. 
(3)  If Cub Care program expenditures are reasonably anticipated to fall below the 
program budget, the commissioner shall raise the maximum eligibility level set in

possible within the fiscal constraints of the program budget. If Cub Care program 
expenditures are reasonably anticipated to exceed the program budget after raising 
the maximum eligibility level pursuant to this subparagraph, the commissioner 
may lower the maximum eligibility level to the level established in paragraph A. 
(4)  The commissioner shall give at least 30 days' notice of the proposed change in 
maximum eligibility level to the joint standing committee of the Legislature having 
jurisdiction over appropriations and financial affairs and the joint standing 
committee of the Legislature having jurisdiction over health and human services 
matters.

family's income; 
(b)  The parent lost coverage for the child because of a change in employment, 
termination of coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget 
Reconciliation Act of 1985, COBRA, of the Employee Retirement Income 
Security Act of 1974, as amended, 29 United States Code, Sections 1161 to 
1168 (Supp. 1997) or termination for a reason not in the control of the 
employee; or

exception.

of each 12-month enrollment period the department shall redetermine eligibility 
for continuing coverage; and 
(2)  Children of higher family income may not be covered unless children of lower 
family income are also covered.  This subparagraph may not be applied to 
disqualify a child during the 12-month enrollment period.  Children of higher 
income may be disqualified at the end of the 12-month enrollment period if the 
commissioner has lowered the maximum eligibility level under paragraph B. 
E.  Coverage under the Cub Care program may be purchased for children described in 
subparagraphs (1) and (2) for a period of up to 18 months as provided in this paragraph

under COBRA.  The department shall adopt rules to implement this paragraph.  The 
following children are eligible to enroll under this paragraph:

month enrollment period if the premium is still unpaid, and the department shall 
provide an opportunity for a hearing and a grace period in which the premium may be 
paid and no penalty will apply for the late payment.  If a premium is not paid by the 
end of the grace period, coverage must be terminated unless the department has 
determined that waiver of premium is appropriate under paragraph D.  The grace period 
is determined according to this paragraph.
