Amend RSA 167 by inserting after section 65 the following new subdivision:\n\nThe Children's Health Plan\n\n167:66 Short Title. This subdivision may be referred to as \"The Children's Health Plan.\"\n\n167:67 Findings and Purpose.\n\nI. The general court finds that at least 30,000 New Hampshire children lack health insurance. The lack of available, comprehensive maternity and child health services imposes a great cost, in both human and financial terms, on the citizens of this state. Both government and industry have long recognized the need for continual reinvestment in physical plant, public infrastructure, marketing, research and development, but less attention has been paid to the need for investment in our state's human resources. At a time when growing economic competition makes it essential that New Hampshire have a high quality work force, spending on programs to develop that work force is a necessary investment.\n\nII. That investment begins with healthy beginnings for children, including early and comprehensive prenatal care and comprehensive primary and preventive child health and developmental services. Equally important, maternal and child preventive health and child development programs are highly cost effective simply from the perspective of health care and special education cost avoidance. Studies show that modest investments in preventive programs today will reduce long-term health and welfare spending by the states tomorrow. Thus, the cost to New Hampshire of not providing\n\nadequate access to maternal and child health services can be measured in wasted lives, rising costs of remedial health and social programs, and a work force increasingly unprepared for the challenges of international economic competition. Recent federal legislation regarding medicaid coverage for low-income pregnant women and children has created an unparalleled opportunity for federal cost sharing in state programs that serve this high risk population.\n\nIII. The purpose of this subdivision is to make a needed and strategic investment in this state's human resources by taking advantage of federally created options to obtain additional federal financial assistance by expanding medicaid eligibility for low income pregnant women and children. This subdivision also provides for improved outreach and enrollment of medicaid eligible pregnant women and children and improved coordination of medicaid services for pregnant women and children with other publicly-funded programs providing maternal and child health services.\n\n167:68 Medicaid Enhancement for Children and Pregnant Women. The director of the division of human services shall adopt rules under RSA 541-A which:\n\nI.

This includes:\n\n(a) Women during pregnancy and during the 60-day period beginning on the last day of the pregnancy; and\n\n(b) Infants under one year of age; and\n\n(c) Children who have attained one year of age but have not attained 6 years of age; and (d) Children born after September 30, 1983, who have attained 6 years of age but have not attained 19 years of age.\n\nII. Establish by January 1, 1994, procedures in the medical assistance program for improved outreach and enrollment for pregnant women and children.

Individuals submitting applications at sites, other than the division of human services district offices, shall not be required to subsequently visit the division of human services district office to complete the initial eligibility determination process.\n\n(c) Instituting a formal procedure for taking maternity-related\n\nmedical assistance applications at the offices of \"qualified providers\" including the providers listed in RSA 167:68, III(b) and for making medicaid services available to a pregnant woman during a \"presumptive eligibility period\" as provided in 42 U.S.C. 1396r-1. Presumptive eligibility shall be made available to pregnant women applying at division of human services district offices as well as to pregnant women applying at non-district office sites.\n\n(d) Instituting an aggressive public education campaign regarding the availability of medicaid coverage for maternal and child health services, the existence of other publicly-funded health programs serving mothers and children, and the advantages of preventive health care.\n\n(e) Instituting a newborn home visiting program whereby a licensed health professional makes a home visit to targeted households with medicaid covered newborns within 60 days after birth to encourage families to participate in the Early and Periodic, Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment Program, to conduct a health screen, to better link the family with primary health care, and to better ensure continued medicaid coverage for the infant.\n\nIII. Establish by January 1, 1994, procedures for improved coordination of the medicaid program for pregnant women and children with other publicly-funded health programs serving mothers and children, including Title V Maternal and Child Health, Title X Family Planning, and the Special Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants and Children, and the Early Intervention Program. Such procedures shall include, to the extent permissible by federal law:\n\n(a) A common application form;\n\n(b) Medicaid eligibility technicians located at agencies providing these publicly-funded health care services; and\n\n(c) The continuation and completion of rulemaking and other measures designed to make medicaid reimbursement available to these publicly funded health programs for medically necessary case management and care coordination services provided by these agencies to medicaid eligible pregnant women and children.\n\n358:55 New Paragraph; Rulemaking.
