Support for Families: Diapers and Incontinence Supplies for Those in Need

This act aims to help low-income families, children with medical complexities, and adults with disabilities access diapers and incontinence supplies. It establishes grant programs and facilitates the use of health savings accounts for these products, intending to improve the health and well-being of beneficiaries.
Key points
Grant programs for states and non-profit organizations to distribute diapers for infants, toddlers, and incontinence supplies for adults and children with special needs.
Diapers and incontinence supplies for individuals with medical needs can be paid for using health savings accounts (HSA, Archer MSA, FSA, HRA).
Medically complex children covered by Medicaid may receive up to 200 medically necessary diapers per month and diapering supplies, with potential for more if a healthcare provider deems it necessary.
Assistance received under this act will not affect eligibility for other federal needs-based programs.
