The bill establishes that under the Medicaid program, both in managed care and fee-for-service contexts, the Department of Health and Human Services will not require a prescription or prior authorization for the reimbursement of providers who repair complex rehabilitation technology. This applies specifically when the technology in question has already been prescribed and reimbursed under Medicaid.

Additionally, the bill defines complex rehabilitation technology as items classified as durable medical equipment under the Medicare program, which are tailored to meet the unique medical, physical, and functional needs of individuals for daily living activities deemed medically necessary. This legislative change aims to streamline the reimbursement process for necessary repairs, ensuring that individuals can maintain access to essential rehabilitation equipment without unnecessary bureaucratic hurdles.
