MINOR

The bill text was reorganized and reformatted from a final act version to a rerevised version, with the main substantive content remaining unchanged. The formatting differences include the addition of session headers, committee listings, and reading dates, while the core legislative text about prenatal care coverage was preserved with minor line breaks and spacing adjustments.

TECHNICAL

The document structure was reorganized to include session information, committee assignments, and reading dates that were not present in the final act version.

Line breaks and spacing were adjusted throughout the text, particularly in the sponsor lists and statutory sections, without altering the substantive policy language.

The 'Final Act' signature block and approval sections were removed, as this is a rerevised version rather than the enacted law.

MINOR

The bill was amended to narrow its scope by adding an exemption for standardized health benefit plans offered under a specific state statute, and to clarify that prenatal care coverage applies only to up to three office visits rather than all prenatal care services.

Scope change

The bill now excludes standardized health benefit plans offered pursuant to Section 10-16-1305 from the mandatory prenatal care coverage requirement, and limits the required coverage to a maximum of three prenatal office visits instead of all prenatal care services.

ELIGIBILITY

Added an exemption for standardized health benefit plans offered pursuant to Section 10-16-1305, meaning these specific plans are no longer required to provide cost-free prenatal care.

REQUIREMENT

Changed the prenatal care coverage requirement from unlimited prenatal care services to a maximum of three prenatal care office visits without cost sharing.

DEFINITION

Revised the statutory language to clarify that the coverage requirement applies to health benefit plans providing maternity coverage, with the new exemption for standardized plans.
