Bill > HR7432

This bill aims to enable state Medicaid programs to provide comprehensive and coordinated care through a health home to individuals with sickle cell disease. Specifically, the bill amends the Social Security Act to allow states to implement a "sickle cell disease-focused State plan amendment" starting on January 1, 2025. This would provide health home services, including comprehensive, dental, and vision services, to eligible individuals with sickle cell disease who are enrolled in Medicaid. The bill also requires states with such an amendment to submit reports on the quality, access, and expenditures of health care for these individuals. Additionally, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services is required to publish best practices for designing and implementing these sickle cell disease-focused amendments.
