AI Summary
This bill, the Non-Opioids Prevent Addiction In the Nation Act (NOPAIN Act), aims to combat the opioid crisis by promoting access to non-opioid treatments in the hospital outpatient setting. Specifically, the bill requires the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to provide separate payments for non-opioid treatments, which are defined as drugs, biological products, or medical devices that can replace, reduce, or avoid the use of opioids. The bill also requires CMS to report to Congress on limitations, gaps, and barriers in Medicare coverage or reimbursement for alternative pain management therapies, such as restorative therapies, behavioral approaches, and complementary and integrative health services.
