SUMMARY OF LEGISLATIVE STANDING COMMITTEE COMMENTS
August14, 2025
Department of Health Services
DHS 105 and 107, relating to prenatal care coordination.
Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis or Summary:
The proposed rule has the potential to impact Medical Assistance behavioral health providers and members. An expanded number of Providers would have the opportunity to provide peer support services within a variety of behavioral health agencies. Providers will be able to provide these expanded services due to Medical Assistance reimbursement of the peer support services. This has the potential to expand provided services beyond what is currently available in traditional services. The impact to providers is the reoccurring cost of program certification which would likely be offset by the provision of the new service to an expanded number of members they serve.
