Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill modernizes North Carolina's Medicaid program by directing the Department of Health and Human Services to create a new team-based care coordination service for substance use disorders and to continue suspending, rather than terminating, Medicaid benefits for incarcerated individuals. It also allows telehealth providers to be eligible for Medicaid without a physical in-state presence and extends the start date for the Children and Families specialty plan to December 1, 2025. Additionally, the bill aims to include freestanding psychiatric hospitals in the healthcare access and stabilization program (HASP) for increased reimbursements.
