Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill would require health insurance plans in Vermont to cover the diagnosis and treatment of Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections (PANDAS) and Pediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome (PANS). If passed, insurance plans would need to cover treatments like antibiotics, medication, and mental health services, and could not charge higher costs for these conditions than for others. This change would take effect for plans issued or renewed starting in 2027 or 2028.
