AI Summary
This bill establishes the Right to Reproductive Health Care Act, which prohibits governmental entities in Nevada from substantially burdening a person's access to or a provider's ability to offer reproductive health services, drugs, devices, or information, unless the government can demonstrate a compelling interest and that the burden is the least restrictive means to further that interest. The bill also expands Medicaid coverage to include voluntary sterilization for men, clinical services related to contraception, and language translation services to facilitate the provision of contraceptive services. The bill makes appropriations and authorizes expenditures to the Division of Health Care Financing and Policy to cover the costs of implementing these Medicaid coverage expansions.
