Participants can now transition through MFP through CY 2019, which was extended from December 31, 2018. On February 28, 2019, Congress introduced two reauthorization bills, H.R.1342 and S.548, through the Empower Care Act to extend the MFP program for five additional years. They are still pending Congressional action.”
