No federal Medicaid money may go to a prohibited entity for one year
What the document says“No Federal funds that are considered direct spending and provided to carry out a State plan under title XIX of the Social Security Act or a waiver of such a plan shall be used to make payments to a prohibited entity for items and services furnished during the 1-year period beginning on the date of the enactment of this Act”
The section bars federal funds that count as direct spending and are provided to carry out a State Medicaid plan or a waiver from being used to pay a prohibited entity for items and services given in the one year after enactment, whether paid directly or under a contract or arrangement between a State and a covered organization.
What the document actually says“No Federal funds that are considered direct spending and provided to carry out a State plan under title XIX of the Social Security Act or a waiver of such a plan shall be used to make payments to a prohibited entity for items and services furnished during the 1-year period beginning on the date of the enactment of this Act”
No federal Medicaid money may pay such a body. That holds for care given in the year after this law.
It covers payment made straight to the body. It also covers payment through a health plan. The next rule says which bodies are barred.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
