Requires health insurance coverage of at-home rehabilitation services.
This bill requires all health insurance policies in New Jersey to cover at-home rehabilitation services for people recovering from injury or illness. It applies to every type of health plan - including individual policies, group plans, HMOs, and health benefits plans - mandating that coverage must be provided "to the same extent as for any other medical condition." The law defines "at-home rehabilitation" as treatment using medical equipment within a person's home for functional physical or mental impairments. This change directly affects insurers (who must include this coverage) and patients needing such services, eliminating gaps in coverage for home-based care.
