Bill overview
This bill requires New Jersey’s Medicaid program to cover emergency contraception without needing a prescription or other authorization from a healthcare provider. Currently, individuals seeking emergency contraception without a prescription must pay for it out-of-pocket. The bill aims to increase access to this important reproductive healthcare service for Medicaid recipients. It mandates that managed care organizations include this coverage in their contracts and requires the state to seek necessary federal approvals.
