Pennsylvania Health Law Project: H.R.1 Webinar Series - How to Navigate Medicaid Work Requirements

Hosted by the Pennsylvania Health Law Project (PHLP)

In July 2025, Congress passed H.R.1, a law that will fundamentally change how Pennsylvanians access healthcare and other public benefits.

As these new policies take effect, PHLP, Community Legal Services, the Pennsylvania Health Access Network (PHAN), and Just Harvest are convening the Benefits Access Coalition.

Medicaid work requirements take effect on January 1, 2027 and Pennsylvania beneficiaries need to be ready. This session will provide a review of the new work requirements, including who is subject to them, implementation timeline, who is exempt, what information consumers will receive and how they can demonstrate compliance and exemptions. Attendees will leave with a working understanding of the work requirements and strategies for helping people obtain and retain coverage.

This project is funded by the Pennsylvania Developmental Disabilities Council. PHLP is a non-profit legal services organization that provides free legal services to Pennsylvanians who need help getting or keeping Medicaid coverage and services.
