Restoring Essential Healthcare Act repeals a prohibition on Medicaid payments to certain entities.

The Restoring Essential Healthcare Act repeals Section 71113 of Public Law 119–21, which had prohibited making payments under the Medicaid program to certain entities. The Act ensures that payment for items and services provided by these entities as medical assistance under a State plan or a waiver of such plan under title XIX of the Social Security Act will be made as if the prohibition had not been enacted. This change affects Medicaid payments and the entities eligible to receive them.
