This bill amends the NJ FamilyCare program to allow reimbursement for multiple medical encounters per day at federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) for enrollees, provided certain conditions are met. Specifically, the referring health care provider must document the medical necessity for each referral to a specialty provider, and each encounter must be with a different specialty provider. The bill clarifies that it does not grant the Commissioner of Human Services the authority to waive or limit any federal statutes or state reimbursement methodologies related to NJ FamilyCare.

Additionally, the bill defines key terms such as "federally qualified health center" and "specialty provider," outlining the criteria that these providers must meet. The Commissioner of Human Services is tasked with applying for any necessary state plan amendments or waivers to implement the bill and secure federal financial participation for state Medicaid expenditures. The act is set to take effect four months after its enactment.
