Medicaid Providers

Summary

The bill would amend Florida law so Medicaid managed‑care plans must keep enough providers, ensure many primary‑care doctors are available after regular hours, maintain an online provider directory, and publish drug formularies within 24 hours of changes. It targets Medicaid recipients – especially those needing after‑hours care or children in state custody – to improve access and transparency. The measure died in the Appropriations Committee on Health and Human Services.
