Bill overview
This bill requires Nevada’s Department of Health and Human Services to seek higher Medicaid reimbursement rates for specific services provided to children with cancer or serious diseases. Specifically, the department must identify these services, determine if they are offered by providers facing shortages, and then request an initial 10% increase in reimbursement rates, followed by an additional 10% increase for those services provided by short-staffed specialist providers. The requests must be supported by methods accepted by the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services.
