Bill > LR219

This resolution directs the Health and Human Services Committee of the Nebraska Legislature to conduct an interim study examining nonopioid pharmacological treatment options within the Medicaid program. The study's purpose is to explore alternative medical treatments that do not involve opioid medications, which have been associated with significant public health challenges. The committee is required to investigate these treatment options and, upon completing the study, prepare a comprehensive report detailing their findings and recommendations. This report will be submitted to either the Legislative Council or the full Legislature, providing policymakers with insights that could potentially inform future healthcare policy decisions related to Medicaid pharmaceutical treatments.
