Introduced Text

Illinois HB4391 mandates coverage for pediatric therapy in health insurance policies.

HB4391 amends the Illinois Insurance Code to require health insurance policies to cover medically necessary pediatric therapy, defined as mental health or substance use disorder treatment, occupational therapy, physical therapy, or speech-language pathology for patients aged 21 and under. The coverage must be provided on a per-session basis without limiting the number of sessions per day. The bill also updates various Illinois statutes to align with these insurance coverage requirements.
