Ask Your State Representative to Co-Sponsor Nursing Home SUD Amendment #604

Last week, the House Ways and Means Committee released its FY 2022 budget recommendation. Nursing Home SUD Amendment #604, filed by State Representative James O’Day (D-West Boylston) would establish a Medicaid rate add-on for nursing facilities who provide specialized care for residents with substance use disorder. 

Action Step:

Send an email to your State Representative and urge him/her to support and co-sponsor Amendment #604 to ensure nursing facilities can continue to provide specialized substance use order care for residents. Please click the following link to send an email in two minutes: https://p2a.co/9sap7F2

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVOCACY!
