AN ACT REQUIRING HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGERY FOLLOWING SKIN CANCER ON THE FACE.

HB 6141 requires health insurance plans to cover facial reconstructive surgery after skin cancer treatment on the face, including melanoma. It directly affects individuals diagnosed with facial skin cancer who need reconstruction and their insurance providers. The bill mandates that both individual and group health insurance policies include this coverage without requiring prior authorization or special approvals. This specifically applies to facial reconstruction following skin cancer treatment, not general cancer care or other types of surgery.
