AB 31 Nevada Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Provides for certain Medicaid reimbursement of providers of nonemergency secure behavioral health transport services. (BDR 38-368)

AB 31 requires Nevada's Medicaid program to reimburse providers of nonemergency behavioral health transport services for travel costs between their base location and patient pickup/drop-off points. It mandates a minimum 15% increase in reimbursement rates for services involving rural counties (population under 100,000) and a 10% increase for all other areas. The bill also requires the state to seek federal approval to implement these rate changes. This directly affects behavioral health transport providers who serve Medicaid patients across Nevada, particularly in rural communities.
