The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate
may revise the allocations of a committee or committees,
aggregates, and other appropriate levels in this resolution,
and make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger, for one or
more bills, joint resolutions, amendments, amendments between
the Houses, motions, or conference reports relating to
accessibility in heath care, which may include legislation
ensuring Medicaid, including home- and community-based
services, is accessible, including to seniors, people with
disabilities, and family caregivers, or prohibiting the
provision of monies or incentives for imposing barriers that
reduce necessary access to home care, by the amounts provided
in such legislation for those purposes, provided that such
legislation would not increase the deficit over the period of
the total of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
