AI Summary

This bill requires health insurance policies in Michigan to provide coverage for two specific pediatric neuropsychiatric disorders: Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections (PANDAS) and Pediatric Acute-Onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome (PANS). The coverage must include treatment methods such as intravenous immunoglobulin therapy. The bill will take effect 90 days after its enactment and will apply to all health insurance policies delivered, issued, or renewed in the state during that period, including policies covering Michigan residents that are issued outside the state. By mandating this coverage, the bill aims to ensure that children diagnosed with these complex neurological conditions can access necessary medical treatments without additional financial barriers.
