Bill overview
The Caring for Grieving Families Act of 2023 aims to provide financial relief for individuals who experience a miscarriage or stillbirth. Specifically, it modifies federal law to limit cost-sharing, such as deductibles and copayments, on prenatal services when a bundled payment for childbirth is not fully paid due to these tragic events. This change would apply to group health plans and individual health insurance coverage. The bill seeks to ensure that individuals are not penalized financially for prenatal care received before a miscarriage or stillbirth.
