Bill overview
This bill aims to improve access to private duty nursing services for Medicaid recipients in New Jersey. It establishes minimum hourly reimbursement rates for these services, specifically $60 per hour for registered professional nurses and $48 per hour for licensed practical nurses. The bill also requires the state to seek federal approval to adjust the Medicaid plan to cover these increased rates. Currently, Medicaid reimbursement rates are too low, potentially discouraging nurses from providing these essential services.
