What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill applies to health insurance policies and self-insured governmental plans that provide coverage for vaccines recommended by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Under the bill, if the federal government withdraws the recommendations for a vaccine, the policies and plans must continue to provide coverage for the vaccine, on an equal basis, if the vaccine is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics or American Academy of Family Physicians. The bill also requires the Department of Health Services, in considering diseases for elimination to be included in the vaccination schedule for the state’s immunization program, to take into account the recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics or American Academy of Family Physicians.

This proposal may contain a health insurance mandate requiring a social and financial impact report under s. 601.423, stats.
