Bill > A07492

This bill amends the Social Services Law to establish coverage and billing procedures in the Medicaid program for complex rehabilitation technology (CRT) for patients with complex medical needs. It defines key terms such as "complex needs patient," "complex rehabilitation technology," and "qualified complex rehabilitation technology supplier," and requires the Commissioner of the Department of Health to maintain specific reimbursement and billing procedures for CRT to ensure adequate access for complex needs patients. The bill also requires the Commissioner to monitor the addition of new billing codes for CRT by the Medicare program and expeditiously incorporate them into the Medicaid program, and establishes requirements for managed care organizations' reimbursement rates for CRT.
