What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

This bill requires health insurance policies, known as disability insurance policies in the statutes, and health plans that provide coverage of a child's outpatient health care services, preventive treatments and services, or mental health services to cover any cost sharing or other payments that are the responsibility of a parent or legal guardian for services provided through the program of early intervention services. The coverage requirement under the bill applies to individual and group health insurance polices and plans, including defined network plans and voluntary nonprofit health care plans operated by cooperative associations, and to health care plans, including self-insured health plans offered by the state, cities, villages, towns, counties, and school districts. The coverage requirement does not apply to health insurance policies that cover only certain specified diseases other than mental health conditions, health insurance policies or self-insured governmental or school district health plans that provide only limited-scope dental or vision benefits, or Medicare replacement or supplement policies.
