Require insurance coverage of acquired brain injury services and require insurance and medicaid coverage of certain testing and treatments for Alzheimer's disease and related dementia

Summary

The bill would force most health‑insurance policies and self‑funded employee plans in Nebraska to pay for medically necessary services for acquired brain injuries, and would also require insurance and Medicaid to cover certain diagnostic tests and treatments that aim to slow Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. It sets limits on coverage, cost‑sharing and defines the therapies and testing that must be covered. The legislation also creates a fast‑track appeal process for denied brain‑injury claims and mandates annual reporting by the Department of Insurance.
