The resolution proposes an interim study to investigate the barriers to accessing health care in Nebraska, particularly in rural areas. It aims to focus on various factors such as transportation limitations, work schedules, housing instability, and food insecurity that hinder timely access to necessary health services. The study will also assess gaps in non-emergency medical transportation, evaluate cost-effective solutions to improve health care access, and review successful policies from other states and regions that have addressed similar challenges.

The Health and Human Services Committee of the Nebraska Legislature is tasked with conducting this study and will report its findings and recommendations to the Legislative Council or Legislature upon completion. The resolution emphasizes the need for better coordination of existing resources and the exploration of practical approaches to enhance health care access in rural communities while maintaining fiscal responsibility.
