States Force Insurance Companies to Cover Autism
, 08 05th, 2010
We always talk about how hard it is to diagnose autism because it encompasses such a wide spectrum of disorders. Insurance companies have traditionally used this as a loophole to avoid giving coverage (surprise, surprise). But on the heels of the nationwide health care reform bill, some states have been empowered to take matters into their own hands when it comes to raising autism awareness and advocating for their rights.
Both New Hampshire and Massachusetts have recently signed bills into law requiring insurance companies to offer more coverage for treatments. You can plan on the insurance companies to take measures to subsidize these costs, of course, but it’s still an important step forward in the battle to combat autism. And with all of the new findings pertaining to treatment and diagnoses of the disorder, it’s essential to ensure people are covered.
