S 793 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

Resolve establishing a task force on MassHealth reimbursement for schools

This bill establishes a task force to study how Massachusetts schools receive funding from MassHealth for medical services provided to eligible students. The group will be led by officials from the departments of health and human services and education, along with representatives from local government and the state legislature. Its main job is to analyze how much money schools currently get for nursing care, administrative help, and other medical benefits, and to identify any barriers preventing them from receiving these funds. The task force must also look at how other funding sources are shared between schools and local towns before submitting its final report and recommendations by July 31, 2023.
