Revises provisions relating to Medicaid. (BDR S-1010)
SB 353 creates a new billing category and establishes a single per diem reimbursement rate for specific mental health clinics serving Medicaid patients. It directly affects clinics that both provide mental health care primarily to Medicaid enrollees and train students in licensed mental health professions (like psychology, social work, or substance use counseling). The bill requires Medicaid to cover all service locations under this rate - including in-person visits, mobile clinics, services to homeless individuals, and telehealth. This change aims to streamline billing for clinics meeting these dual criteria, with implementation required by October 1, 2025.

MODERATE
The bill was converted from a preliminary reprint to its final enrolled version, incorporating specific formatting and page numbering required for state law. The core policy content regarding Medicaid reimbursement rates for mental health training clinics remains substantively identical, with no changes to funding amounts, eligibility criteria, or effective dates.
Scope change
The bill's scope and applicability remain unchanged; the text represents the same legislative intent but in its final, enacted format.
TECHNICAL
Removed preliminary reprint headers and explanatory notes, replacing them with the formal 'As Enrolled' title page, chapter designation, and page numbering consistent with state statutes.
Replaced the 'Summary' and 'Fiscal Note' sections with the formal 'Legislative Counsel's Digest,' which provides a standardized summary of the bill's purpose and effect.
Deleted the 'Explanation' section that described how to read the bill's markup, as this is no longer needed in the final enacted text.
Adjusted line breaks and paragraph spacing to conform to official state publication standards.
