OK SB494

Oklahoma Health Care Authority must coordinate with Attorney General-certified domestic violence programs to prevent billing information and explanation of benefits from being mailed to the physical addresses of domestic violence victims receiving counseling services

Creates the "Commitment to Care for People with Complex Physical Disabilities Act" establishing Medicaid coverage requirements for individuals with conditions including spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, ALS, multiple sclerosis, and certain amputations or paralysis

Requires complex rehabilitation technology (CRT) such as power wheelchairs, adaptive seating, standing frames, and gait trainers to be provided only by qualified CRT suppliers who are accredited, Medicare-enrolled, and employ RESNA-certified Assistive Technology Professionals

Directs OHCA to establish specialized billing codes, supplier standards, and payment rates for CRT that account for the significant resources needed to serve complex-needs patients, and exempts sole-source specialty items from competitive bidding requirements
