This bill amends section 68-994 of the Revised Statutes Cumulative Supplement, 2024, to prohibit the addition of long-term care services and supports to the Medicaid managed care program until July 1, 2030. Long-term care services and supports are defined to include services provided by skilled nursing facilities, nursing facilities, assisted-living facilities, and home and community-based services.
Additionally, the bill includes a provision to repeal the original section 68-994, thereby updating the law to reflect the new prohibition on adding long-term care services to the Medicaid managed care program. This legislative change aims to maintain the current structure of Medicaid services without incorporating long-term care options for the specified duration.
