Bill Summary
A BILL To amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to extend acute hospital care at home waiver flexibilities.
AI Summary
This bill, the Hospital Inpatient Services Modernization Act, aims to extend the flexibilities provided under the Acute Hospital Care at Home waiver program. The bill would allow for the provision of inpatient hospital services, including telehealth services, in the homes or temporary residences of individuals during the COVID-19 emergency period and for 2 years after. It would also waive certain requirements, such as the need for 24-hour nursing services and compliance with life safety codes, for these home-based hospital services. Additionally, the bill requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to evaluate the Acute Hospital Care at Home and Hospital Without Walls waivers and submit a report to Congress with recommendations for further legislative and administrative action.
