Massachusetts S369 aims to ensure senior care organization quality and accountability.

Massachusetts S369 amends the General Laws to ensure senior care organization quality and accountability. It mandates that MassHealth Senior Care Options program contracts with nursing homes to reimburse them at least the Medicaid fee-for-service payment rates for MassHealth members. This includes room and board and all specified rate add-ons. The bill seeks to ensure access to critical services and facilitate transitions from hospitals to nursing facilities.
