A 3569 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires menopause information to be distributed under certain circumstances.

This bill (A3569) requires licensed healthcare providers to give an informational pamphlet about menopause-related changes to female patients aged 40 or older during their annual physical exams, starting 180 days after the law takes effect. The pamphlet, created by the New Jersey Department of Health within 90 days of the law's passage, covers perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause. It directly affects women receiving annual physicals in New Jersey and healthcare providers who conduct those exams. The law mandates this distribution as a standard part of care for eligible patients, with no additional costs or requirements specified.
