§ 250 — Ban on Recovering Federal Funds from Providers
The bill prohibits state agencies that contract with health and human services providers from trying to recover or otherwise offset federal funds obtained or retained by the provider. The prohibition applies to home- and community-based services provider payments disbursed by state agencies that received funding for the payments under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (P.L. 117-2, § 9817). The bill prohibits state agencies from (1) reducing contracted amounts for the same or similar services from one contract period to the next contract period or (2) demanding reimbursement in the amount of any home- and community-based services provider payments.
