Conversion Therapy - Prohibitions and Causes of Action

Summary

The legislation makes injuries from conversion therapy a recognized form of health‑care malpractice, removes the cap on noneconomic damages, and creates a private right to sue. It also bars certain licensed practitioners from performing conversion therapy or making false, misleading, or deceptive statements about it for a specified purpose, and requires insurers to add a surcharge that funds a dedicated conversion‑therapy surcharge fund. The goal is to give victims a clearer path to compensation and to deter the practice.
