Book excerpt: Certain portions of K.S.A. 39-709, as amended by L. 1988, ch. 143, section 8, conflict with sections of the Medicare Catastrophic Coverage Act of 1988, 42 U.S.C. section 1396p. In order to comply with the more restrictive federal eligibility standards, and thus remain eligible for participation in the federal medicare program, state legislative action is necessary to amend those portions of the statute that directly conflict with federal requirements.
