Allows remote patient monitoring of pregnant patients; requires reimbursement for remote patient monitoring rendered to certain Medicaid beneficiaries.
This bill requires New Jersey Medicaid to cover remote patient monitoring for pregnant individuals who cannot receive in-person care. It allows healthcare providers to use digital tools to collect health data like blood pressure, weight, and glucose levels from patients at home and securely transmit it to providers for analysis and treatment management. The bill amends Medicaid law to mandate reimbursement for this service for certain pregnant Medicaid beneficiaries, making remote monitoring a covered benefit under the program. This policy change aims to improve access to prenatal care for pregnant individuals facing barriers to in-person appointments.
