↑Expands abortion accessmodel confidence 60%
Expands access to emergency contraception (a form of medication abortion in some contexts) by requiring coverage without cost-sharing when provided by prescription, order, or over-the-counter, and allowing up to twelve months' dispensing at once.
This coverage shall include emergency contraception without cost sharing when provided pursuant to a prescription, or order under section sixty-eight hundred thirty-one of the education law or when lawfully provided over-the-counter.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends insurance law to mandate coverage for FDA-approved contraceptives (including OTC), emergency contraception, sterilization, education/counseling, follow-up services, 12-month dispensing, and specifically adds pharmacist reimbursement for dispensing self-administered hormonal contraceptives and related services at parity with other providers; these provisions expand insurance funding and access for contraceptive services (including those overlapping with abortion topics) but do not address gestational limits, personhood, travel shields, or other listed topics.
