Rochelle shares info on legislation concerning health care coverage

SB 1004, An Act Concerning Dental and Vision Insurance Coverage for Children, Stepchildren and Other Dependent Children, requires health, vision, and dental plans to cover dependents up to age 26 on their parents’ insurance plans – closing loopholes under the Affordable Care Act to ensure all families get covered. SB 1202, An Act Concerning Provisions Related to Revenue and other Items to Implement the State Budget for the Biennium Ending June 30, 2023, develops the “Covered Connecticut” plan to provide affordable, quality insurance to over 40,000 residents who do not currently qualify for assistance. HB 6687, An Act Concerning Medical Assistance for Children and Adults Without Health Care Coverage, expands healthcare coverage to all children 8 and under who otherwise are not able to get coverage. SB 1003, An Act Prohibiting Certain Health Carriers and Pharmacy Benefits Managers from Employing Copay Accumulator Programs, ensures that all prescription drug discounts available to consumers will be passed on to consumers to reduce out of pocket costs. HB 5596, An Act Concerning Telehealth, continues expanded telehealth insurance coverage for two years. This is from a press release from state Rep. Kara Rochelle, D-Ansonia/Derby.
