Require insurance coverage for infant cranial helmets

Summary

The bill would make most health insurance policies in Nebraska cover cranial helmets for infants up to one year old who have deformational plagiocephaly or craniosynostosis. It applies to individual and group sickness‑and‑accident policies, hospital/medical expense policies (except short‑term major medical plans of six months or less and limited‑benefit plans), and self‑funded employee benefit plans, unless preempted by federal law. The measure failed and was indefinitely postponed.
