AI Summary
This bill, the Caring Recovery for Infants and Babies Act (CRIB Act), allows state Medicaid programs to cover residential pediatric recovery center services for infants with neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS).

The bill defines a "residential pediatric recovery center" as a facility that provides medical care and services to these infants, and allows the centers to also offer counseling and other services to the infants' mothers and family members.
