The Department of Social Services shall provide coverage and benefits for a child who is in another state and who is covered by an adoption assistance agreement made by the department for the coverage or benefits, if any, not provided by the residence state. To this end, the adoptive parents acting for the child may submit evidence of payment for services or benefit amounts not payable in the residence state. The department shall reimburse the adoptive parents for such services or benefit amounts. However, there may be no reimbursement for services or benefit amounts covered under any insurance or other third-party medical contract or arrangement held by the child or the adoptive parents. The department shall promulgate rules pursuant to chapter 1-26 to require the necessary information and establish procedures necessary to implement this section. The rules shall include procedures to be followed in obtaining prior approvals for services in those instances when required for the assistance. The additional coverages and benefit amounts provided pursuant to this section shall be for services to the cost of which there is no federal contribution, or which, if federally aided, are not provided by the residence state.
