As a result of House Bill 1255 that passed during the 2025 legislative session, the entry income threshold for the School Readiness program will change from 150% of the federal poverty level (FPL) to 55% of the state median income (SMI). This change must take effect on October 1, 2025. Additionally, both the School Readiness and the School Readiness Plus sliding fee scales have been revised to reflect updated SMI ranges. This functionality is complete within EFSM for mandatory implementation on October 1, 2025. Note: Assessed copayments remain in effect for households within their 12-month care authorization period, including those who may have had an updated eligibility assignment (for example, a care level change, a billing group change or extension of care authorization period end date due to adding a new child to the household prior to redetermination).
