Expands who may order, certify, bill for, and furnish many Medicare and Medicaid services by broadening the roles of nurse practitioners, certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs), and certified nurse‑midwives (CNMs). It also requires faster regulatory action by HHS on selected payment rules, instructs Medicaid to cover CRNA services under a specific payment method, and tightens transparency and limits on how Medicare contractors set local coverage rules.
Requires most changes to take effect for items and services furnished on or after 90 days after enactment, and directs HHS to use interim final rules or subregulatory guidance if necessary to meet those effective dates.
Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committee on Ways and Means, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
