The purpose of this legislation, known as the "Kidd's Stuttering Act," is to improve the screening and treatment of childhood-onset fluency disorders, such as stuttering, by ensuring that these services are covered under Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). The act aims to enhance the quality of care for young children who may struggle with speech fluency issues. Key provisions of the act include the requirement for the Secretary of Health and Human Services to incorporate screening for stuttering into the core health measures for children by January 1, 2028.
