AI Summary

This bill prohibits disability insurance policies or plans from discriminating against insured individuals by eliminating or reducing benefits if the disability is caused in whole or in part by a mental or nervous condition, or by self-reported symptoms that have been documented by a licensed physician. This aims to ensure that individuals with disabilities, including those with mental health conditions or subjective symptoms, have equal access to the disability insurance benefits they are entitled to.
