Bill overview
This bill, the State Living Donor Protection Act, prohibits insurance companies in West Virginia from declining or limiting coverage for individuals solely because they are living organ donors. It amends existing state insurance laws to specifically protect living donors from discrimination when applying for or maintaining life, major medical, disability, or long-term care insurance policies. The bill also aims to ensure fair rates and disclosure requirements within the long-term care insurance market, and clarifies rules regarding pre-existing conditions and living donor status.
