New Jersey S2476 ensures that insurance policies covering foot care services must also cover services provided by podiatric physicians.

New Jersey S2476 mandates that insurance policies providing coverage for foot care services must include services rendered by podiatric physicians. This applies to individual, small employer, and large group commercial insurers, as well as health maintenance organizations and various types of corporation contracts. If a policy excludes coverage for routine foot care services, it is defined as the treatment or removal of asymptomatic corns, calluses, or toenails, except when these conditions occur in the presence of metabolic disease.
