Bill > SB0500

This bill aims to ensure access to quality complex rehabilitation technology (CRT) in the Medicaid program for people with complex medical needs. It requires the state department to establish focused policies and rules for CRT, including designating specific billing codes, setting supplier standards, requiring evaluations by qualified professionals, maintaining adequate payment policies, and exempting CRT from certain cost-cutting initiatives. The bill also requires managed care Medicaid plans to adopt these regulations and policies. The bill's enactment is contingent on the passage of a related bill, Senate Bill No. 499.
