Establishes and requires coverage for routine opt-out HIV testing during provision of medical care in certain settings.

Summary

The bill makes HIV testing a standard part of medical care in specified settings, allowing patients to decline but not requiring separate consent or pre‑test counseling. It obligates health‑insurance contracts to pay for the test the same way they cover any other medical condition. The goal is to increase early detection of HIV and align New Jersey with CDC screening recommendations.
