Request Title Extend Authority for Medicaid Neurobehavioral and Neurorehabilitation Facility Services (291 #16c)
Biennium 2026-2028
Budget Round Initial Bill
Half Sheet Number 291 #16c
Description

This amendment strikes language requiring the Department of Medical Assistance Services to seek the appropriate waiver authority for a demonstration project to add neurobehavioral and neurorehabilitation facilities to support 20 individuals with traumatic brain injuries and neurocognitive disorders by January 1, 2026. The department has been in negotiations with the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) and will now have to modify the type of waiver it seeks to provide Medicaid coverage for these services. Language strikes the type of waiver, providing more flexibility to the department as it continues discussions with CMS on the waiver and eliminates the date of January 1, 2026 by which the department was required to seek the demonstration waiver.
