Requires NJ FamilyCare payment for multiple medical encounters per day for enrollee at federally qualified health center.

This bill requires NJ FamilyCare to reimburse for multiple medical visits with different specialty providers at a federally qualified health center (FQHC) on the same day. It directly affects NJ FamilyCare enrollees who need same-day specialist care at FQHCs, which serve medically underserved communities. The key provision mandates that the referring provider must document medical necessity for each visit, and each encounter must involve a different specialty provider. The bill explicitly states it cannot override federal Medicaid rules or existing state reimbursement policies. It aims to align NJ FamilyCare payment practices with current regulatory exceptions for multiple same-day visits under specific documented circumstances.
