Requires Medicaid reimbursement of mental health rehabilitation services provided via clubhouse program.
This bill (S 3699) requires New Jersey Medicaid to reimburse mental health rehabilitation services provided through "clubhouse programs." Clubhouse programs are peer-run community centers where people with mental health conditions receive support and services to help them recover and reintegrate into society. The bill amends existing Medicaid law to explicitly include these clubhouse services under covered "rehabilitative services" (previously listed under subsection 12). This change directly affects mental health clinics operating clubhouse programs and Medicaid recipients who use these specific services, ensuring they receive coverage without additional barriers.
