Enhances access to prosthetic and orthotic devices by requiring health benefit plans to cover additional devices, including custom ones, for activities like running and swimming. It also mandates coverage for device replacement without restrictions if deemed necessary by a healthcare provider. The bill repeals state requirements for emergency care coverage that duplicate federal law. Insurers must report claims data to the Department of Insurance, and the Commissioner must provide a report to legislative committees.
