Overview
This bill aims to change how New Jersey’s FamilyCare program reimburses patients who receive medical care at federally qualified health centers (FQHCs). Specifically, it requires FamilyCare to pay for multiple medical encounters per day for an enrollee at an FQHC, provided the referring provider documents the medical necessity of each referral and each encounter is with a different specialty provider. The bill also ensures compliance with federal regulations and requires the state to seek necessary plan amendments to secure federal funding.
