O & P Parity
Description
Collection
Title:
O & P Parity
Text:
A rigorous parity bill has passed both the New Jersey State Senate and
General Assembly. The Senate approved the legislation on Thursday, Jan.4 and the
General Assembly did the same on Monday evening, Jan. 7. This bill mandates
coverage for both prosthetic and orthotic care at the same rate as the federal
Medicare reimbursement schedule and it applies to private health insurers and
New Jersey’s State Health Benefits Program (SHBP).
WOW, NJ O & P business owners must be partying it up this weekend. If I
read the above correctly, not only do all insured have prosthetic and orthotic
benefits but they will be paid at the Medicare allowable. Very nice!!!!!!!
Am I missing something? Sounds too good to be true.
