Resolve, Directing The Department Of Health And Human Services To Expedite Reimbursement Of All Vendors
LD 1447 is a procedural resolution requiring Maine's Department of Health and Human Services to amend its MaineCare Benefits Manual. It mandates that the department reimburse healthcare providers at least 75% of submitted claims within 90 days of receiving the claim, directly affecting medical providers and suppliers who bill MaineCare. The policy change streamlines payment timelines for services rendered, aiming to reduce delays in vendor reimbursements under Maine's Medicaid program.
