Official summary
Abstract published by the legislature (via Open States). Text as published by the legislature; reproduced verbatim.
Under current law, a medical malpractice insurer (insurer) is prohibited from increasing premiums for, refusing to issue, canceling, terminating, or refusing to renew a medical malpractice insurance policy (prohibited actions). The bill permits an insurer to take prohibited actions against an applicant or named insured, including an individual health-care professional or business, or against a health-care facility, such as a hospital or clinic, that allows the use of facilities, equipment, or supplies for, or provides, prescribes, orders, or performs, gender-affirming health-care services for an individual who is a minor under 18 years of age. The bill also prohibits an insurer from accepting state money for the payment of premiums if the malpractice policy covers actions relating to providing gender-affirming health-care services to minors. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced.)
