Bill overview
The Michelle Alyssa Go Act aims to improve access to mental healthcare by changing how Medicaid defines ‘institutions for mental diseases.’ Specifically, it excludes facilities with 36 beds or fewer from this definition, provided they meet established national standards for mental health programs and substance use disorder treatment. This change is intended to broaden the range of facilities eligible for Medicaid reimbursement, potentially increasing access to care, particularly in rural or underserved areas. The bill requires these smaller facilities to adhere to rigorous quality standards.
