An Act relative to intensive case management for clinically complex older adults

This bill creates a new intensive case management program in Massachusetts to support older adults with complex medical or behavioral needs who are enrolled in or seeking state home care services. It defines "clinically complex" individuals as those facing serious mental illness, difficult family dynamics, or multiple health issues that make standard care insufficient. The legislation directs the state department to establish specific reimbursement rates that reflect the extra time and expertise required to help these individuals successfully access and remain in the home care program.
