Bill overview
This bill amends Nevada’s Medicaid plan to expand coverage for a wider range of contraceptive services. Specifically, it requires the State Plan to cover voluntary sterilization for both men and women, clinical services related to contraception, and the cost of language translation services to ensure equitable access for recipients. The bill also mandates that the Division of Health Care Financing and Policy develop a compensation rate for translation services and clarifies that contraceptive services can be provided by any healthcare provider within their scope of practice.
