        Secretary that implementing such provisions statewide for all 
        individuals eligible to enroll in the State plan (or waiver of 
        the State plan) would not be feasible by reason of a shortage 
        of qualified providers of medication-assisted treatment, or 
        facilities providing such treatment, that will contract with 
        the State or a managed care entity with which the State has a

        State plan under title XIX of the Social Security Act (42 
        U.S.C. 1396 et seq.) that the Secretary of Health and Human 
        Services determines requires State legislation in order for the 
        respective plan to meet any requirement imposed by the 
        amendments made by this section, the respective plan shall not 
        be regarded as failing to comply with the requirements of such 
        title solely on the basis of its failure to meet such an 
        additional requirement before the first day of the first 
        calendar quarter beginning after the close of the first regular 
        session of the State legislature that begins after the date of

        session, each year of the session shall be considered to be a 
        separate regular session of the State legislature.

        of the Social Security Act to provide for an extension of the 
        enhanced FMAP for certain Medicaid health homes for individuals 
        with substance use disorders, and to require States to include 
        under their State Medicaid plans coverage for medication-
