To amend titles XVIII and XIX of the Social Security Act to require coverage of certain food and nutrition services under the Medicare and Medicaid programs.

This bill, HR 8391, proposes to expand the types of services covered under the Medicare and Medicaid programs. It directly affects Medicare beneficiaries and Medicaid recipients by requiring coverage for certain food and nutrition services. Under Medicare, these services would be covered, with Medicare paying 80% of the actual charge. For Medicaid, these services would also be covered and become a mandatory benefit that states must provide. The Secretary of Health and Human Services will specify the exact requirements for these services, and the changes would take effect 180 days after the bill's enactment.
