Commissioner of human services instruction to authorize indirect billing for individualized home supports

Related bill: HF1095

AI Generated Summary

The legislative bill directs the Commissioner of Human Services in Minnesota to request federal permission to allow providers of individualized home supports to charge for services provided indirectly. These services are provided without direct physical interaction with the service recipient, but are necessary for ensuring the recipient’s continuity of care and well-being. This might include activities like arranging transportation, coordinating healthcare, managing legal and crisis prevention supports, and maintaining employment and independent living setups. The goal is to ensure these necessary supports are recognized and billable, even when carried out without direct contact with the service recipient. The changes must be submitted for approval by December 1, 2025.
