Relating to hospital-owned outpatient facilities, including site-neutral reimbursement rates under Medicaid.

HB 985, titled "Relating to hospital-owned outpatient facilities, including site-neutral reimbursement rates under Medicaid," addresses how Medicaid reimburses outpatient services provided at hospital-owned facilities. The bill would require Medicaid to pay the same rate for certain services regardless of whether they are delivered at a hospital-owned outpatient center or an independent facility, aiming to reduce cost disparities. This policy change would directly affect hospital-owned outpatient facilities and Medicaid providers in the state. However, the full bill text is unavailable in the provided context, so specific implementation details cannot be confirmed.
