contraception; cost sharing prohibition
HB 2520 (incorrectly titled "contraception; cost sharing prohibition") actually amends Arizona health insurance contract rules to require coverage for specific preventive services without cost-sharing. The bill mandates that health insurance contracts must cover preventive mammography screening and diagnostic imaging for breast cancer (including digital breast tomosynthesis and MRI) as recommended by medical guidelines, without requiring patient cost-sharing. It also requires coverage for maternity benefits related to legally adopted children under specific conditions (adoption within one year, payment of birth costs, etc.). The bill does not address contraception or cost-sharing for contraceptive services, as its title suggests. This is a coverage requirement for existing health insurance plans, not a new benefit.
