AB 514 Nevada Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Makes revisions relating to mental health care. (BDR 38-350)

AB 514 requires Nevada's Medicaid program to cover therapeutic group homes for individuals with serious mental illnesses. This directly affects Medicaid recipients who need community-based mental health care, expanding access beyond current coverage. The bill defines "therapeutic group home" as a community-based living arrangement supporting independent living for these individuals and mandates the state to establish coverage methods, seek necessary federal waivers, and apply for Medicaid plan amendments to secure funding. It does not change existing Medicaid eligibility but adds a specific service category to required coverage under federal funding rules.
