↑Expands abortion accessmodel confidence 80%
The bill expands Medicaid coverage for remote monitoring services specifically for pregnant and postpartum persons (removing the prior 'high-risk' limitation), increasing access to prenatal and postpartum care.
A provision for payment of medical assistance for remote patient monitoring services provided via telemedicine, as defined in § 38.2-3418.16, for (i) [deleted: high-risk] pregnant and postpartum persons;
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill text addresses Medicaid reimbursement for remote patient monitoring of pregnant and postpartum persons (by deleting the 'high-risk' qualifier to broaden eligibility) and explicitly prohibits Medicaid family planning funds from covering or referring for abortion services; these provisions substantively engage the abortion topic on funding/insurance and other subtags. No provisions address firearms, transgender issues, or immigration enforcement.
