HB 2576 Medicaid coverage for diabetes.
Introduced by: Viola D. Baskerville | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Medicaid; state plan. Directs the Department of Medical Assistance Services to include in its state plan a provision for the payment of mandated nutritional counseling for those Medicaid-eligible persons who are diagnosed with Type I or II diabetes and who it is determined would benefit from such counseling. Since other programs for some persons who are Medicaid-eligible already mandate nutritional counseling, such as WIC, those persons would continue to receive nutritional counseling from that program until eligibility expires. There is also a technical amendment.
