Pennsylvania HB672 requires health insurers to cover allergenic protein dietary supplements for infants.
Pennsylvania HB672 amends the Insurance Company Law of 1921 to mandate that health insurers cover early egg and peanut allergen introduction dietary supplements for infants. This coverage must be provided at no additional cost, including cost-sharing. The bill aims to reduce the number of people with food allergies, which studies show can lead to severe reactions and significant medical costs. The coverage applies to health insurance policies offered, issued, or renewed on or after the effective date of this section.
