Provides for coverage of primary and preventative obstetric and gynecological care
Bill S 6499 amends insurance law to ensure full coverage for certain preventative health services. It mandates that primary and preventative obstetric and gynecological care, as well as annual cervical cytology screenings for women aged eighteen and older, shall not be subject to annual deductibles and coinsurance. This means individuals with applicable insurance policies will not face these specific out-of-pocket costs for these essential preventative services.
