According to a press release from Representative Amy Loudenbeck, today Governor Evers signed a health care bill that was authored by Representative Amy Loudenbeck and Dale Kooyenga. The release states that Assembly Bill 679, which is now 2021 Wisconsin Act 208, removes the sunset provision created in 2021 Wisconsin Act 10, which was the Covid relief bill, to allow hospitals to seek federal Medicare reimbursement for certain services provided in a home setting. Current law sunset the program on January 1, 2022. By allowing this innovative program to continue, these regulatory flexibilities create additional capacity options and allow hospitals to provide a high quality of care in a patient’s home prior to discharge from an impatient service.
