Pennsylvania HB2022 requires health insurance policies to cover scalp cooling systems for cancer chemotherapy patients.

Pennsylvania HB2022 amends the Insurance Company Law of 1921 to mandate that health insurance policies providing coverage for cancer chemotherapy treatment must also cover scalp cooling systems. These systems use devices to cool the scalp and reduce hair loss during chemotherapy. The coverage is subject to the same deductible, copayment, and coinsurance conditions as chemotherapy treatment and must align with the policy's terms and conditions. The act excludes certain types of policies, such as accident-only, credit-only, and Medicare supplement policies.
