AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 18 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGERY FOLLOWING MASTECTOMIES.

This Act requires that certain breast reconstructive procedures be covered by group and individual health insurance plans in conjunction with mastectomy procedures. The adoption of these standards will bring the State of Delaware into compliance with identical federal standards governing breast reconstruction. This Act will enable the Department of Insurance to retain jurisdiction over such plans as opposed to losing such jurisdiction in favor of an agency of the federal government.
