This bill amends Florida Statutes to authorize the Agency for Health Care Administration to include community health worker services as an optional Medicaid service. It defines "community health worker" and outlines the types of services they may provide, such as health promotion, wellness coaching, cultural mediation, and care coordination. The agency is required to adopt rules regarding these services and may seek federal approval to implement the changes.

Additionally, the bill adds community health worker services to the list of Medicaid services eligible for reimbursement on a fee-for-service basis and mandates that Medicaid managed care plans cover these services as a minimum benefit. The effective date for these changes is set for July 1, 2026.
