SB 1483 Connecticut Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING THE PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME-PLUS PROGRAM.

SB 1483 requires the Department of Social Services to pay federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) participating in the Patient-Centered Medical Home-Plus (PCMH+) program the full amounts they were owed for November and December 2024, which were unpaid due to budget exhaustion in September 2024. This bill directly affects FQHCs that serve HUSKY Health program members, addressing a $1.28 million arrears payment for those two months. The measure prohibits future shared savings payments under the PCMH+ program until these overdue payments are fully resolved. The bill does not alter the program’s structure but ensures timely compensation for providers under existing shared savings and care coordination funding.
