MIRACLE Act of 2025

This legislation mandates the Secretary of Health and Human Services to undertake a comprehensive study focusing on neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) . The study will investigate the prevalence of NAS and examine infant and maternal health outcomes linked to pediatric transitional care facilities. Key elements of the study include identifying barriers to obtaining valid and up-to-date data on NAS prevalence among beneficiaries of State Medicaid plans. It will also assess the scope of services and supports currently available to Medicaid beneficiaries diagnosed with NAS. Following the study's completion, the Secretary is required to submit a detailed report, including findings and recommendations, to Congress within three years of the Act's enactment. This report will subsequently be published on a public website to ensure transparency and accessibility.
