Nevada AB169 revises health insurance provisions to mandate coverage for speech-language pathology treatments for stuttering in minors.
Nevada AB169 amends existing law to require health insurance policies and health plans to include coverage for habilitative and rehabilitative speech-language pathology as a treatment for stuttering for persons under 18 years of age. The bill prohibits insurers and health plans from imposing maximum annual limits on the number of visits, limiting coverage based on the cause of the stuttering, or subjecting the benefits to medical management techniques. The changes apply to policies and plans delivered, issued for delivery, or renewed on or after January 1, 2026.
