A bill for an act providing for Medicaid coverage of power standing device equipment on power wheelchairs for Medicaid recipients with a permanent physical disability.

HF 427 requires Iowa's Medicaid managed care organizations to cover the cost of integrated power standing device equipment on power wheelchairs for Medicaid recipients with a permanent physical disability, upon request. This equipment allows users to stand without transferring from their wheelchair. The bill mandates coverage when the device is deemed "reasonable and medically necessary" for the recipient's independence, function, health, and well-being. It directly affects Medicaid recipients who use power wheelchairs and have a permanent physical disability, ensuring access to this specific mobility aid.
