A bill for an act relating to Medicaid and children's health insurance program coverage for mental health services provided in school-based settings.

Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill requires the state's health and human services department to seek federal approval to cover mental health services in schools for children on Medicaid or CHIP. These services would be available to all eligible children, not just those with special education plans, and would include therapy, prevention, and case management. The department must also work with schools to implement these changes, especially in rural areas.
