Requires DHS to submit Medicaid State plan amendment to federal government requesting approval to create Health Home Program for certain Medicaid beneficiaries with sickle cell disease.
This bill requires the New Jersey Department of Human Services to request federal approval for a new Health Home Program specifically for Medicaid recipients with sickle cell disease who are at risk of developing a second chronic condition. Once approved, the state must implement this program within 180 days, which involves coordinating primary, acute, behavioral, and long-term care services to address the needs of these patients as a whole. The legislation also mandates the creation of necessary rules and regulations to support the program's operation.
