Requires health insurance coverage of postpartum pelvic floor physical therapy.
This bill requires all health insurance plans in New Jersey to cover pelvic floor physical therapy for one year after childbirth. It applies to hospital service, medical service, health service, individual, group, and health benefits plans. The coverage must be provided at the same level as for other medical conditions, meaning no higher out-of-pocket costs or restrictions than standard medical care. This directly affects women who have given birth and are covered by these insurance plans during the postpartum period.
