The resolution proposes an interim study to explore the fiscal and operational implications of incorporating long-term care services and supports into Nebraska's Medicaid managed care program. Introduced by Senator Hansen, LB832 seeks to maintain the current prohibition on adding these services until July 1, 2030. The study aims to address the ongoing debate surrounding this issue by gathering insights from other states that have previously integrated long-term care services into their Medicaid managed care systems, focusing on the associated costs and challenges.

The Health and Human Services Committee of the Nebraska Legislature is tasked with conducting this interim study. Upon completion, the committee is required to report its findings and recommendations to the Legislative Council or the Legislature, ensuring that lawmakers have the necessary information to make informed decisions regarding the future of long-term care services within the Medicaid program.
