Bill overview
This bill updates California’s health insurance requirements to align with federal standards. It directs the state to review its current ‘essential health benefits’ benchmark plan and establish a new one for the 2027 plan year. Starting in 2027, the new benchmark plan must include additional benefits, such as expanded fertility services and durable medical equipment, contingent upon federal approval. The bill also addresses potential conflicts with existing regulations and clarifies reimbursement obligations for local agencies.
