A00997 Memo:

NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY
MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF LEGISLATION
submitted in accordance with Assembly Rule III, Sec 1(f)
 
BILL NUMBER: A997
 
SPONSOR: Forrest
  TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the social services law, in relation to limiting avail- ability and coverage for non-invasive prenatal testing for medicaid patients based on age if such limits are recommended by the United States food and drug administration, the centers for Medicare and medi- caid services, or the United States department of health and human services   PURPOSE: To ensure that the New York State Medicaid program can react to updated policy recommendations, health care facts and information, and/or safety communications related to age restrictions for non-invasive prenatal testing which are recognized by federal agencies.   SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: This bill amends Chapter 650 of the Laws of 2022 by clarifying that DOH may make changes to the availability and coverage of non-invasive prena- tal tests based on the safety communications or policy guidance recom- mendations from the United States Food and Drug Administration, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and the United States Department of Health and Human .Services.   JUSTIFICATION: This bill provides additional flexibility to the New York State Depart- ment of Health (DOH) if federal health organizations publish updated policy recommendations, health information, or safety communications related to age restrictions for non-invasive prenatal testing. The New York State Medicaid program currently supports the expansion of non-in- vasive prenatal testing beyond the former coverage of individuals who met the risk criteria and/or were 30 years of age or older. This bill enables DOH to align their policy with that of federal agencies in the event that federal agencies issue warnings related to false results, publish additional information related to appropriate or inappropriate use of tests, or provide updated policy guidance related to expanding or restricting the coverage of non-invasive prenatal tests by public health insurance programs.   LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: This is a new bill.   BUDGET IMPLICATIONS: None noted.   EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect on the same date and in the same manner as a chapter of the laws of 2022, amending the social services law relating to increasing access to non-invasive prenatal testing under medicaid, as proposed in legislative bills numbers S. 8157 and A. 8604, takes effect.
