AI Summary
This bill requires health insurance plans in Colorado to provide coverage for certain preventive health services, including counseling, prevention, and screening for sexually transmitted infections, as well as contraception coverage. The bill also requires the Division of Insurance to submit a determination to the federal government regarding whether these benefits constitute additional essential health benefits that would require state defrayal. Additionally, the bill addresses reimbursement for family planning services and allows minors to receive confidential testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections. The bill appropriates funds to the Department of Health Care Policy and Financing and the Division of Insurance to implement these changes.
