Requires certain health insurance policies to provide coverage for diabetes and prediabetes screening

Bill A 1206 mandates that certain health insurance policies must provide coverage for diabetes and prediabetes screening. This requirement applies to policies that include coverage for physician services or offer major medical and comprehensive benefits. Insurers are prohibited from imposing any deductibles, co-payments, co-insurance, or other cost-sharing requirements for these screenings. The screenings covered must be conducted pursuant to a national evidence-based practice guideline, aiming to make preventative care more accessible to policyholders.
