Provides Medicare coverage for medically necessary home resiliency services for at-risk individuals.
The Survival Aid For Emergencies through Medicare Act amends the Social Security Act to include coverage of medically necessary home resiliency services under Medicare. These services, which include items like heat pumps, solar batteries, and energy-efficient cold storage, are intended for individuals who are medically at-risk during climate or manmade disasters. The bill defines home resiliency services and establishes a process for determining which individuals are medically at-risk, considering factors such as geography-specific climate risks and regional history of disaster hazards.
