Bill Summary
Health Care & Health Insurance
Under current law, for some clients, home health services under the medicaid program may only be provided in the client's residence. The bill removes the location restriction for home health services to comply with changes to federal medicaid rules that allow for services to be delivered in the community as well as the residence.
(Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.)
