Nevada Assembly Bill 305 To Cover Medicaid Community Paramedicine Services
In January 2016, Governor Brain Sandoval signed Assembly Bill 305 into law, which allows the state Medicaid program to cover community paramedicine services. The Community Paramedicine services include evaluation/health assessments, chronic disease prevention, monitoring and education, medication compliance, and immunizations and vaccinations. The services can be delivered by an emergency medical technician, advanced emergency medical technician, or paramedic. To be reimbursable, the specific Community Paramedicine services must be part of the care plan ordered by the consumer’s primary care provider organization . . .
