The bill amends section 409.967 of the Florida Statutes to enhance the accountability of Medicaid managed care plans. It introduces new requirements that prohibit these plans from reviewing prior authorization claims for medical necessity once approval has been granted. Additionally, the bill mandates that managed care plans provide coverage for durable medical equipment and complex rehabilitation technology from any qualified provider within the network chosen by the enrollee.

To implement these changes, the Agency for Health Care Administration is required to adopt specific rules. These rules will include provisions that allow enrollees to select their preferred provider for durable medical equipment and establish a grievance resolution process for complaints regarding provider selection. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
