Enacting the every body can move act to mandate the coverage and payment for prosthetic and orthotic devices in health insurance policies.

HB 2566, the "Every Body Can Move Act," mandates that all health insurance policies sold in Kansas must cover prosthetic and orthotic devices at the same level required by federal law (42 U.S.C. § 1395k et seq.). It directly affects insured individuals needing these devices and insurers offering health coverage in Kansas, requiring coverage for devices that meet medical needs for daily activities, physical functions (like running or swimming), and bathing. Key provisions include covering all necessary materials, user instruction, and replacements under specific conditions (e.g., physiological changes or repair costs exceeding 60% of replacement), while prohibiting denial of coverage based on disability. The law takes effect January 11, 2027, and ensures access to at least two in-network providers for these devices.
