Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the social services law, in relation to including seizure detecting monitors for certain infants under standard coverage for Medicaid recipients
AI Summary
This bill amends New York's social services law to include seizure detecting monitors as a covered benefit under Medicaid for infants who have epilepsy, other seizure disorders, or a family history of seizures, meaning these monitors will now be part of the standard coverage provided by the government health insurance program for low-income individuals and families. However, the bill also sets a limit on this coverage, capping the reimbursement for each monitor at $150, and the act takes effect immediately, applying to all relevant policies and contracts from that date forward.
