Parity for Nonnursing Services Under Long-term Managed Care Plans
Died in Health Care Facilities & Systems Subcommittee
Summary
HB 219 would require Florida’s Medicaid long‑term managed‑care program to pay licensed providers of non‑nursing services—like home‑health agencies and nurse registries—at rates equal to or higher than those paid to unlicensed providers such as family caregivers. It also directs annual rate adjustments for inflation and obligates the Agency for Health Care Administration to request any necessary Medicaid waivers or state‑plan amendments. The measure aims to create payment parity for licensed non‑nursing providers.
