1. Short title This Act may be cited as the Medicaid and CHIP Quality Improvement Act of 2017 . 2. Findings Congress finds the following: (1) Despite the fact that Federal and State governments spend hundreds of billions of dollars every year on care for Americans through the Medicaid and CHIP programs, there is no nationwide, systematic method of reporting, collecting, evaluating, or improving the quality of care across all payment and delivery systems (fee-for-service, managed care, primary care case management, or other mechanisms). (2) Although the quality of care delivered through Medicaid health plans is frequently measured, there is no method or mechanism to systematically improve the quality of care provided to all Medicaid and CHIP beneficiaries. (3) For the majority of Medicaid and CHIP enrollees who are served by primary care case management or fee-for-service arrangements, there are no Federal requirements for comparable quality monitoring or improvement. Thus there currently is no ability to make fair assessments across all modes of care for Medicaid and CHIP enrollees. (4) State flexibility and the resulting opportunities for innovation are hallmarks of the partnership between Federal and State governments in the Medicaid and CHIP programs. Without a way to systematically measure quality, however, policymakers cannot know which innovations are the most effective. 3. Measuring and reporting on comparable health care quality measures for all persons enrolled in Medicaid (a) Quality assurance standards Section 1932(c)(1)(A) of the Social Security Act ( 42 U.S.C. 1396u–2(c)(1)(A) ) is amended by inserting or comparable primary care case management services providers described in section 1905(t) as well as health care services furnished in fee-for-service settings or other delivery systems after 1903(m) . (b) Adult health quality measures Section 1139B of the Social Security Act ( 42 U.S.C. 1320b–9b ) is amended— (1) in subsection (b)— (A) by redesignating paragraphs (4) and (5) as paragraphs (5) and
