Creates provisions relating to health insurance reimbursement of doula services

HB 1820 creates a state registration system for doulas to enable health insurance reimbursement of their services in Missouri. The bill requires the state Department of Health to establish application criteria, review registration applications, approve or deny registrations, and maintain a public registry of approved doulas. It specifies that doulas providing non-medical support (not medical care) can register to seek reimbursement, though unregistered doulas may still practice. The department must consult community organizations like the Missouri Community Doula Council when setting registration rules. This bill does not mandate insurance coverage but provides the framework for insurers to reimburse registered doulas.
