requiring certain health insurance policies of a birth mother to provide coverage for a newly born child from the moment of birth.

SB 47 requires health insurance plans covering a birth mother to automatically include coverage for her newborn child from the moment of birth, eliminating the need for a separate policy change. This directly affects birth mothers and their newborns enrolled in these specific health insurance plans. The key provision mandates that coverage for the infant begins immediately at birth, rather than requiring the mother to add the child to the policy later. The law takes effect on January 1, 2026, as signed by the governor.
