192.601. Toll-free telephone to be established for information on health care providers for children on medical assistance. — The department of health and senior services shall establish a toll-free telephone number for the use of parents to access information about health care providers and practitioners who provide health care services under the maternal and child health block grant and the medical assistance program and about other relevant health care providers, as required by 42 U.S.C. 705(a)(5)(E).
