Health care coverage for metabolic disorders.
This bill would require a health care service plan contract and disability insurance policy that provides coverage for hospital, medical, or surgical expenses and is issued, amended, delivered, or renewed on and after January 1, 2024, to provide coverage for the testing and treatment of other digestive and inherited metabolic disorders. Because a violation of the bill’s requirements by a health care service plan would be a crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. Status: vetoed by Governor.
