↑Expands abortion accessmodel confidence 90%
Requires insurance policies that cover contraception to also cover abortion medication (including when provided without a prescription or order), expanding insurance coverage for abortion.
Any policy under this article that covers contraception when provided pursuant to a prescription shall cover abortion medication as defined in subdivision thirty-one of section sixty-eight hundred two of the education law, when provided pursuant to an ordinary prescription or order under section sixty-eight hundred one or sixty-nine hundred two of the education law and when lawfully provided other than through a prescription or order.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds provisions to public health, education, and insurance laws that expand access to medication abortion by authorizing pharmacist and nurse dispensing via non-patient-specific orders (with training, risk assessment, and fact sheet requirements) and by mandating equivalent insurance coverage to contraception; no provisions restrict abortion access or address other listed topics.
