Washington SB5075 prohibits cost-sharing for prenatal and postnatal care in health plans offered as qualifying health plans for health savings.

Washington SB5075 mandates that health plans issued or renewed on or after January 1, 2026, which provide coverage for maternity services, must not impose any cost-sharing requirements for prenatal services, including office visits, laboratory services, ultrasounds, and postnatal services like office visits, lactation specialists, and prescription drugs. This bill ensures that the cost-sharing for these services is at the minimum level necessary to preserve the enrollee's ability to claim tax-exempt contributions from their health savings account under IRS laws and regulations.
