AI Summary

This bill aims to require insurance companies to reimburse licensed athletic trainers for certain services, as long as the insurer would reimburse another healthcare provider for those same services. The bill applies to health plans that cover the specific types of services or medical conditions that fall within the scope of practice for licensed athletic trainers. The reimbursement may be subject to reasonable deductibles, co-payments, and other limits, but these cannot be more restrictive than what is applicable to other healthcare providers. The bill does not impede or prevent the provision or coverage of healthcare services by licensed athletic trainers.
