AN ACT CONCERNING HEALTH COVERAGE MANDATES FOR CERTAIN HEALTH CONDITIONS.
SIGNED BY GOVERNOR
Summary
Starting Jan. 1, 2027, any individual or group health plan in Connecticut that covers chemotherapy must also cover scalp‑cooling systems at least as generously as Medicare does, without extra cost‑sharing except for high‑deductible plans. The bill also directs the Insurance Commissioner to study several other mandated coverages, such as infertility treatment and hormone‑therapy reimbursement, and to report the findings by Jan. 1, 2027. The measure aims to improve access to supportive cancer care while evaluating the impact of other insurance mandates.
