Prohibits health insurance carriers from placing time limit on anesthesia services used for medical or surgical procedures.

This bill prohibits New Jersey health insurance carriers from imposing time limits on anesthesia services provided during medical or surgical procedures. It requires coverage to be based on actual time used (defined as when a licensed anesthesiologist or nurse anesthetist is present with the patient), calculated using a formula combining base units and time units multiplied by a network-specific conversion factor. The law directly affects patients requiring extended anesthesia due to complications, surgical delays, or training scenarios, and ensures coverage isn't denied based on arbitrary duration. It aligns with standard medical billing practices by banning exclusions of "anesthesia time" and requiring continuous coverage during procedures.
