This legislation seeks to enhance maternal and child health outcomes for pregnant and postpartum women covered by State Medicaid programs. It mandates that the Secretary of Health and Human Services investigate and report on the current landscape of remote physiologic monitoring device coverage, including any limitations or barriers. Specifically, the Secretary must submit a report to Congress within 18 months, detailing State practices for covering devices such as pulse oximeters, blood pressure cuffs, scales, and blood glucose monitors, and providing recommendations to address identified barriers. Following this report, the Secretary is required to update State Medicaid resources, like telehealth toolkits, to align with the recommendations for improved coverage.
