Bill Summary
Relative to MassHealth rates. Health Care Financing.
AI Summary
This bill aims to increase MassHealth rates, which is the state's Medicaid program. Specifically, it proposes to amend the state's Medicaid law to require that the MassHealth rates be equal to or greater than the federal Medicare rates for the same services. This would ensure that MassHealth providers receive payment rates on par with or higher than the national Medicare program, which could help improve access to Medicaid services for eligible individuals in Massachusetts.
