Requires health insurance coverage for hair headpieces for patients receiving chemotherapy treatment for cancer.

This bill requires all health insurance plans in New Jersey that cover prostheses to include coverage for hair headpieces (human or artificial) worn to conceal scalp hair loss caused by chemotherapy for cancer patients. It applies to hospital service corporations, medical service corporations, health service corporations, individual policies, group policies, and health benefits plans. Coverage is mandatory only when a treating physician provides a written recommendation that the headpiece is medically necessary, and it must follow the same limitations as other prostheses under the plan. The law affects cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy who rely on insurance for these headpieces, ensuring they are covered under existing prosthetic coverage rules.
