This bill, titled "Graduate Student Services Covered," seeks to amend Chapter 40-8 of the General Laws entitled "Medical Assistance" to allow for Medicaid reimbursement for services provided by graduate student interns in mental health professional disciplines. The bill specifies that the graduate student intern must be formally assigned by an accredited college/university to an agency or facility for clinical training. The intern would be allowed to receive compensation from the reimbursed hours, and the supervising organization would be allowed to retain a portion of the compensation to cover supervisory expenses. The bill also outlines the requirements for a mental health practitioner working as a clinical trainee, including compliance with licensure or board certification requirements or being a graduate student in a field placement or internship program leading to licensure. The bill would take effect upon passage.
