SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Accident and sickness insurance; health maintenance organizations; optional coverage for obstetrical services. Requires insurers issuing individual health insurance policies, corporations issuing individual major medical subscription contracts and health maintenance organizations to provide, as an option to the policyholder, subscriber, or member, coverage for obstetrical services. The coverage for obstetrical services must have durational limits, deductibles, coinsurance factors, and copayments that are no less favorable than for physical illness generally. The provisions of this bill apply to all insurance policies, contracts, and plans delivered, issued for delivery, reissued, renewed or extended or at any time when such policies, contracts, or plans are changed or the premium is adjusted after July 1, 2000.
