This Senate Resolution directs the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee to study reimbursement rates and workforce challenges for shift nursing services provided to individuals under Pennsylvania's Medical Assistance program. The study will examine current payment structures for both children and adults, compare rates with neighboring states, and analyze how costs differ between home care and hospital settings. Committee members will also gather input from healthcare providers, families, and advocacy groups to assess the impact of potential rate changes on nurse availability and missed shifts. The committee is required to submit a final report with its findings and recommendations to the Senate within 12 months of the resolution's adoption.
