The bill adds new requirements for employers of applied behavior analysis practitioners regarding pay adjustments linked to Medicaid reimbursement increases.

  • NRS 422.2704

    If the rate of reimbursement included in the State Plan for Medicaid for applied behavior analysis is increased for the next plan year, any employer of a person who provides such services that enters into a contract with Medicaid must agree to increase the amount paid to its employees who provide applied behavior analysis services. The amount of the increase must be equal to at least an amount that corresponds to the percentage of the Medicaid reimbursement rate that was paid to such employees before the increase.

    This mandates that if Medicaid reimbursement rates increase, the employers must also increase their employees' pay accordingly.

  • NRS 422.2704

    An employee who provides applied behavior analysis services has a right to the increase in pay described in subsection 1 and may bring an action in a court of competent jurisdiction if the employer fails to provide such an increase in pay to recover any amount to which the employee is entitled.

    This gives employees the right to take legal action if their pay is not increased as required.
