Co-sponsor HB 194

Signed into law · Wyoming House · Co-sponsor

Air ambulance coverage-Medicaid.

Maddy summaryHB 194 requires Wyoming Medicaid to cover air ambulance transport services for all residents, addressing the high costs (up to $75,000) that often cause financial hardship. It mandates a capped copay (up to 20% of costs for non-Medicaid-eligible residents) and creates an "air ambulance coverage account" funded by insurer assessments. The bill also requires state agencies to cover air ambulance services through Medicaid, with claims processed retroactively within 90 days. This policy directly affects Wyoming residents needing emergency air transport and aims to prevent bankruptcy from unaffordable medical bills.

Passed · Wyoming House · Co-sponsor

Management council membership-2.

Maddy summarySF 161 amends Wyoming's legislative management council membership rules. It specifies that two senators and two representatives are selected at large by each chamber's party caucuses, with strict limits on party representation (no more than one from the same party as the chamber's presiding officer). The bill also establishes a two-year rotation of the council chairmanship between the House and Senate and clarifies that the council directs the legislature's day-to-day operations. This procedural bill affects only the internal organization of the Wyoming Legislature, not public policy.

Tobacco settlement funds research standards.

Maddy summaryHB 176 requires Wyoming's Department of Health to develop science-based tobacco prevention, cessation, and treatment programs using CDC best practices and peer-reviewed materials. It mandates that these programs address the comparative risks of all nicotine products (including vaping, smokeless tobacco, and cigarettes) and prioritize cost-effective strategies based on annual funding. The bill, introduced in 2019 but not passed, aimed to standardize how tobacco settlement funds are used to reduce tobacco-related health issues. It does not create new funding but sets implementation guidelines for existing settlement dollars.

Signed into law · Wyoming House · Co-sponsor

Mental health and substance use coverage parity.

Maddy summaryHB 211 requires all health insurance plans sold in Wyoming to provide equal coverage for mental health and substance use disorder treatment as they do for physical health conditions, starting July 1, 2019. It applies to every individual and group health insurance policy, including plans from health maintenance organizations, that is delivered, renewed, or modified after that date. The law mandates compliance with the federal Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008 (42 U.S.C. § 300gg-26), as updated through 2018. This ensures people with mental health or substance use conditions receive coverage without stricter limits than for medical or surgical care.
