LB22 | Allow Medicaid billing for evidence-based nurse home visiting services
LB22 calls on Nebraska DHHS to submit a state plan amendment to CMS for targeted case management for evidence-based nurse home visiting for new mothers. This would allow programs like Lincoln’s Family Connects program to bill Medicaid and offer 3-4 visits with a nurse in the home at discharge from labor and delivery.
LB104 language was included in AM348 and was signed into law with this bill.
