HR 1983 would simply confirm for state government bureaucrats and Medicaid third-party payers that optometrists are fully able to provide medical eye care services to Medicaid patients – just as they do for Medicare and private-pay patients throughout the country.

Most importantly though, HR 1983 will increase access to eye care for school-aged children and working adults who need it most.
