HB 6154 Michigan House · 2023-2024 Regular Session

Insurance: health insurers; coverage for medically necessary treatment related to or as a result of an acquired brain injury; require. Amends 1956 PA 218 (MCL 500.100 - 500.8302) by adding sec. 3406cc.

This bill requires health insurance companies in Michigan to cover medically necessary treatments for acquired brain injuries, which include conditions like strokes, traumatic brain injuries, and those caused by tumors or toxins. It specifically prohibits insurers from placing lifetime or unreasonable annual limits on the number of days for acute and postacute care related to these injuries. The legislation defines acquired brain injury broadly and establishes clear definitions for various therapies, such as cognitive rehabilitation and neurofeedback, ensuring they are included under coverage if deemed medically necessary.
