AI Summary
This bill requires the Massachusetts Health Policy Commission to conduct an analysis of children with medical complexity in the state. The analysis will gather data on the population of children with medical complexity, including their health insurance coverage, primary diagnoses, and demographic information. It will also assess the medical expenditures for this population, including hospital utilization, durable medical equipment costs, and pharmaceutical costs. The report will also examine the availability of specialty care and care models used for children with medical complexity in other states. The goal is to better understand the needs and costs associated with serving this population in Massachusetts.
