This bill aims to extend coverage for prosthetic limbs and custom orthotic braces to public and school employees in Washington State. It reenacts and amends RCW 41.05.017, ensuring that all health plans providing medical insurance under this chapter, including those created by insuring entities and those not subject to Title 48 RCW, comply with various provisions related to health care coverage.

Additionally, the bill introduces a new section that specifies the effective date for these changes as January 1, 2027. This extension of coverage is intended to enhance the support available to public and school employees who require prosthetic and orthotic devices, thereby improving their quality of life and ability to work.
