AN ACT CONCERNING A FIVE-YEAR MEDICAID RATE REVIEW, DENTAL REPRESENTATION ON A MEDICAL ASSISTANCE OVERSIGHT COUNCIL, BIOMARKER TESTING AND OPIOID PRESCRIPTION COVERAGE REQUIREMENTS AND A STUDY CONCERNING PAYMENT OF SPOUSES FOR STATE-SUBSIDIZED HOME CARE.

Summary

The law requires the Medicaid plan to reimburse clinicians for cognitive assessments for enrollees 64 or younger who show signs of impairment. It also limits non‑emergency dental payments, establishes a set of annual preventive dental services for healthy adults, and expands the composition of the Medical Assistance Oversight Council to include dental stakeholders. These changes aim to improve care quality while controlling costs.
