AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 18 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO EXPERIMENTAL TREATMENT HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE.

This legislation creates a benchmark for determining when a treatment or service is no longer experimental or investigational. Essentially, when Medicare determines that a treatment is safe for its population, commercial insurers in Delaware may no longer deny coverage on that basis. This will remove inconsistencies for properly-evidenced treatments between payers.
