Bill > S0032

This bill would provide for abortion coverage in the Medicaid program and repeal the abortion coverage exclusion for state employee insurance plans. Specifically, it would amend the state's Medicaid program to include coverage for any termination of pregnancy permitted under state law, while ensuring that no federal funds are used for such services, except as authorized under federal law. Additionally, the bill would repeal the existing law that prohibits the state from including abortion coverage in any health insurance contracts, plans, or policies covering state employees. The bill's purpose is to promote equity in access to reproductive healthcare.
