The proposed bill amends Title 40 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes by adding a new chapter, Chapter 41, which focuses on the disclosure of addiction treatment coverage by insurers. This chapter outlines the purpose of ensuring transparency regarding addiction services covered by health insurance policies. It includes definitions relevant to the chapter, mandates that insurers provide a bi-annual notice to policyholders detailing the coverage for various levels of addiction treatment, and specifies the content and format of this notice to ensure it is clear and understandable. The notice must explain the types of treatment available, lengths of stay, access processes, and avenues for public funding if needed.

Additionally, the bill establishes administrative penalties for insurers that fail to comply with the bi-annual notice requirement. It also clarifies that certain existing laws, specifically Section 303 of the Accident and Health Filing Reform Act, do not apply to the notices required under this new chapter. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
