Requires Medicaid coverage for remote stress tests for pregnant women.

This bill (A3503) would require New Jersey Medicaid to cover FDA-approved at-home remote stress tests for pregnant women with high-risk pregnancies. These tests allow women to monitor fetal and maternal heart rate and uterine activity through 20-40 minute sessions at home under clinical supervision. Currently, only about 40% of women with high-risk pregnancies undergo the prescribed twice-weekly testing due to transportation and scheduling challenges. The bill aims to improve access to this important monitoring tool for Medicaid-eligible pregnant women.
