S 1260 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires health insurance coverage of postpartum pelvic floor physical therapy.

This bill requires most health insurance plans in New Jersey to cover pelvic floor physical therapy during the postpartum period (defined as one year after childbirth). It applies to hospital service contracts, medical service contracts, health service contracts, individual and group health insurance policies, health benefits plans, and state-purchased health plans. The coverage must be provided at the same level as for other medical conditions, without additional restrictions. This directly affects all health insurance providers operating in New Jersey and New Jersey residents seeking postpartum pelvic floor therapy.
