Requires health insurance coverage of scalp cooling systems in connection with cancer chemotherapy treatment; requires physicians to inform patients of scalp cooling therapy.

This New Jersey bill (A2483) requires health insurance plans to cover scalp cooling systems used during cancer chemotherapy to prevent hair loss. It applies to all major insurance types in the state - hospital service contracts, medical service contracts, individual policies, group plans, and health benefits plans - that already cover chemotherapy. Insurers must provide this coverage "to the same extent as for any other condition" under the policy, without additional patient cost. The bill directly affects cancer patients receiving chemotherapy who may use scalp cooling devices, ensuring these treatments are covered as part of standard medical benefits.
