Infants with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome and their mothers would get a new federal health study.

A new bill would direct the Department of Health and Human Services to study Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) in infants and related health issues for mothers. The study would look at how common NAS is and what services Medicaid offers. Its findings would be shared with Congress and the public.

What Would Change

Currently, there is no federal requirement for the Department of Health and Human Services to conduct a specific study on Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) and related health outcomes. If this bill becomes law, HHS would be directed to carry out such a study, identify challenges in data collection, and map out services available through Medicaid. The findings would then be shared with Congress and made public within three years.

Key Provisions
