New Hampshire HB1798 proposes Medicaid coverage for 100 diapers per month for children under 12 months old.
New Hampshire HB1798 amends the state Medicaid plan to include coverage for the cost of 100 diapers per month for children under 12 months old. The commissioner of the department of health and human services must submit a Section 1115 demonstration waiver to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) by November 1, 2026. The department will then make best efforts to implement the benefit by May 1, 2027, subject to CMS approval. The bill also appropriates $100,000 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2027, to fund this initiative.
