Adds to existing law to provide for a Medicaid state plan amendment allowing reimbursement for parents as teachers.

The purpose of this bill is to amend the State Plan to cover home visitation for Medicaid participants. Cost-benefit analyses show that high quality home visiting programs offer returns on investment ranging from $1.75 to $5.70 for every dollar spent due to reduced costs of child protection, K-12 special education and grade retention, and criminal justice expense. This estimate uses the mid-point of $3.26. The goal is to provide services for families prenatal through age five in the home setting by a qualified provider.
