HB386

Kentucky HB386 requires coverage for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders screenings for parents or guardians of children under two years old.

Kentucky HB386 mandates that the Department for Medicaid Services and any managed care organizations contracted with the department must allow screenings for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders for any accompanying parent or legal guardian of a covered child health plan until the minimum deductible is satisfied. This provision ensures that parents and guardians of children under two years old can access necessary screenings without cost-sharing.
