AI Summary
This bill requires schools to obtain written parental consent for each new service provided to a student enrolled in Medicaid under the Medicaid to Schools program, with each new service being defined as a new diagnostic billing code, specifically an International Classification of Diseases (ICD) code. Additionally, the bill mandates that legislative policy committees overseeing education and health and human services will now receive annual reports on the Medicaid to Schools program, in addition to existing reporting requirements for other legislative committees. This change aims to increase transparency and parental oversight regarding the services students receive through this program, which helps fund health services in schools.
