HB5258 mandates the Medicaid Technical Assistance Center to collaborate with public and private partners to identify best practices for health providers. It requires the Center to create and administer ongoing trainings for health care providers, both in-person and web-based, free of charge. The bill also tasks the Center with developing an annual plan for recruiting providers, particularly those in service deserts and communities experiencing health care disparities. Additionally, the Center must maintain a website with training archives, a calendar, and resources for various stakeholders.
