Bill overview
This bill requires health insurance plans, including those offered to individuals, small employers, schools, and through the state, to cover the costs of private duty nursing services. These services, provided by registered nurses or licensed practical nurses under a physician’s direction, are intended for individuals needing more intensive care than standard visiting nurses can offer. The coverage would be subject to the same deductibles and coinsurance as similar services within the plan.
