Relates to insurance coverage for pediatric acute-onset neuropsychiatric syndrome

Summary

The bill adds new provisions to New York’s insurance law that obligate group health plans and their insurers to pay for rehabilitative treatment for children with pediatric acute‑onset neuropsychiatric syndrome (PANS). Coverage is required only when the child’s attending physician provides a written certification of medical necessity. This aims to ensure families can access needed care without insurance denial.
