Enact SHIELD Act

Summary

The bill orders the Ohio Department of Medicaid to create or adopt electronic systems that record location and timing data for non‑emergency medical rides and in‑home personal care. Providers must submit that data to receive Medicaid reimbursement, with privacy safeguards and a process for exemptions when equipment fails or emergencies occur. The aim is to improve payment integrity and reduce fraud in the Medicaid program.
