Increases Medicaid reimbursement rates for private duty nursing services by $4.

This bill increases New Jersey's Medicaid reimbursement rates for private duty nursing (PDN) services by $4 per hour. It raises the rate to at least $65/hour for registered nurses and $53/hour for licensed practical nurses, applying to all Medicaid delivery systems (fee-for-service and managed care). The change affects nursing providers who deliver home-based, continuous care to Medicaid beneficiaries. The bill requires the state to seek federal approval for these rate changes to maintain federal funding.
