Plain-language change summary

In the latest version of Senate Bill 852, some technical language has been adjusted for clarity, specifically in the phrasing about "Partnership" Exchange models. The changes reflect a more precise reference to the General Assembly's authority over these exchanges. This matters because clearer language helps ensure everyone understands the rules regarding these models, potentially leading to better governance and fewer misunderstandings.
