AI Summary: The bill "Relative to asset limits for MassHealth" aims to adjust the asset limits for MassHealth, a Medicaid program in Massachusetts, to ensure that individuals with disabilities or who are elderly can qualify for long-term care services without having to deplete all of their assets. The main provisions include increasing the asset limit from $2,000 to $123,600 for an individual and from $3,000 to $248,400 for a couple.
