Expands eligibility for family members to serve as MassHealth-paid caregivers.
The bill amends the General Laws to allow legally liable family members, including biological, adoptive, foster, or step parents, legal guardians, and powers of attorney, to serve as caregivers for MassHealth-funded home and community-based services. The executive office of health and human services must file a state plan amendment or waiver application to implement this change.
