A 4325 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires menopause information to be distributed under certain circumstances.

This bill requires licensed healthcare providers in New Jersey to give an informational pamphlet about perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause to female patients aged 40 or older during their annual physical examinations, starting 180 days after the law takes effect. The Department of Health must create and publish this pamphlet on its website within 90 days of the bill's effective date. The law directly affects healthcare providers who conduct annual physicals for eligible female patients and aims to provide standardized educational materials. It takes effect immediately upon enactment but implements the pamphlet distribution requirement 180 days later. The bill focuses on mandating the distribution of existing, state-prepared educational content during routine healthcare visits.
