Commissioner of human services instruction to authorize indirect billing for individualized home supports
This bill requires Minnesota's Commissioner of Human Services to seek federal approval for home support providers to bill for specific "indirect" services. It authorizes billing for coordination tasks like arranging transportation, healthcare access, legal support, employment maintenance, basic needs, independent living support, and crisis management - when direct service involvement isn't possible or the recipient chooses otherwise. These changes directly affect home support providers and individuals receiving individualized home supports. The policy aims to streamline service continuity without direct recipient contact under defined conditions, effective July 1, 2025.
