SUMMARY
Synopsis
of Bill
Senate Joint Memorial
67 states the following:
Therefore, be it
resolved by the Legislature that:
Significant
Issues
HSD does have rules, policies, instructions, reporting
requirements and procedures for reimbursement to Medicaid providers for
non-emergency transportation services, personal care option program services,
developmentally disabled residential facilities and outpatient prescription
drugs. DOH does not reimburse Medicaid
providers for these services with the exception of developmentally disabled
residential services funded through the Medicaid waiver for individuals with developmental
disabilities.
The
Medicaid program is in the process of reviewing outpatient prescription drug
services and personal care option services.
Non-emergency transportation services can also be reviewed. HSD and DOH can discuss reviews of Medicaid
reimbursement for their respective developmentally disabled residential
services.
