Coverage of abortion services from medical assistance and MinnesotaCare programs eliminated, abortion and abortion-related services eliminated as a mandatory health benefit for health plans other than large group plans, and inclusion of coverage in State Employees Group Insurance Program prohibited.

This bill removes abortion services from coverage under Minnesota's medical assistance and MinnesotaCare programs, which provide health insurance to low-income residents and children. It also eliminates abortion and abortion-related services as a required benefit for most private health plans, excluding only large group plans. Additionally, the legislation prohibits the State Employees Group Insurance Program from including abortion coverage for state workers and their families. These changes amend existing state statutes to restrict public funding and mandate coverage for abortion services while repealing previous requirements that included such services in state health programs.
