Enhanced Medicaid reimbursement rate-maternal services.

Summary

The bill lets the Wyoming Department of Health request higher Medicaid reimbursement rates for doctors, midwives and other qualified providers who deliver prenatal, delivery and postpartum services in rural and frontier areas. It aims to improve access, lower maternal and infant complications, and keep obstetric services available in those communities. The state would fund the program with $1 million from the general fund and $1 million in federal funds for two fiscal years.
