Requires Medicaid coverage for family-based counseling services provided as part of treatment for substance use disorder.

This bill would require New Jersey Medicaid to cover family-based counseling services as part of substance use disorder treatment. The coverage applies to inpatient or outpatient care provided at licensed facilities approved by the New Jersey Department of Health, with services prescribed by a physician. It explicitly adds family-based counseling to Medicaid's list of covered services for substance use disorder treatment. This change would directly affect Medicaid enrollees receiving substance use disorder care and licensed treatment facilities in New Jersey.
