Kansas HB2668 requires health insurers to cover pain management services, including nonopioid medications and nonmedication alternatives.

Kansas HB2668 mandates that all individual and group health insurance policies in Kansas must include a plan for adequate coverage of pain management services. This includes nonopioid, nonnarcotic medications and nonmedication services that serve as alternatives to opioid or narcotic drugs. Insurers must submit these plans to the Department of Insurance, which will review the adequacy of access to pain management services and ensure no undue preferential coverage of opioids.
