Authorizes state agencies to incorporate certain Medicaid regulations by reference when promulgating rules

SB 1479 - Currently, a state agency may incorporate by reference certain federal or nationally or state-recognized rules, regulations, standards, and guidelines in rules promulgated by the state agency. This act provides that Medicaid regulations promulgated by a state agency may incorporate by reference Medicaid fee schedules, later additions to Medicaid reimbursement methodologies, and later additions to federal rules and regulations needed to administer the Missouri Medicaid program.
