Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) are increasingly using “downcoding,” the practice of retroactively reclassifying the level of care to reduce payments to Nebraska hospitals. LB 942 ends these predatory practices by aligning Medicaid with established federal standards, ensuring hospitals are paid fairly for the care they are legally and ethically required to provide.

Send a message to your State Senator and ask them to support hospitals and fair reimbursements by saying "yes" to LB 942.
