Require direct reimbursement to certain facilities for hospice care services under the Medical Assistance Act

Summary

LB 944 proposes changes to the state’s Medical Assistance Act, expanding the list of services that Medicaid can reimburse, including hospice care, continuous glucose monitors, breast pumps, and medical‑respite care for homeless adults. The amendments would affect Medicaid recipients and the hospitals, intermediate‑care facilities, schools, and other providers that deliver those services. The measure failed and was indefinitely postponed.
