Bill > HB3650

This bill extends the deadline for the Oklahoma Health Care Authority to establish minimum reimbursement rates from contracted entities to healthcare providers for services to Medicaid enrollees, moving the expiration date from July 1, 2027, to July 1, 2035, and specifies that this extension applies to providers who do not opt into value-based payment arrangements or other alternative payment agreements. The bill also clarifies that these minimum reimbursement rates will continue to be at least 100% of the Authority's fee schedule for in-network providers and 90% for non-network providers, based on rates from January 1, 2021, and includes specific provisions for various provider types like rural health clinics, behavioral health clinics, pharmacies, and anesthesia providers, while also outlining requirements for value-based payment arrangements and capitation rates. This legislation is set to become effective on November 1, 2026.
