Bill overview
The CADSAW Act aims to increase the number of trained home health aides and nursing assistants by providing grants to states, tribal nations, and educational institutions to establish demonstration projects. These projects will offer education, training, and career advancement opportunities for individuals, particularly those with incomes below 200% of the poverty line and working in areas serving medical assistance recipients. The bill also increases Medicare payments for aides who complete these training programs.
