Bill Summary

INSURANCE -- Adds to existing law to provide for coverage under a health benefit plan for participants in clinical trials.

AI Summary

This bill adds a new chapter to Idaho's insurance laws to provide coverage for routine patient care costs for participants in approved clinical trials under health benefit plans. It defines "routine patient care costs" and specifies the criteria for an "approved clinical trial." The bill also sets limitations on the issuer's coverage requirements, such as not having to reimburse a research institution directly or provide out-of-state coverage, and prohibits the issuer from canceling or refusing to renew coverage solely due to a participant's involvement in a clinical trial.
