Proposed bill could lift age cap for autism health coverage
Read full article: Proposed bill could lift age cap for autism health coverageRICHMOND, Va. – Families whose children have autism could soon breathe a sigh of relief. On Tuesday, the House of Delegates Committee on Commerce and Labor unanimously voted in favor of a bill that would lift the age cap on autism health coverage. And although the services they need may lessen with age, autism doesn't stop," said McFarland. Lavada Guthrie and other parents with the Virginia Autism Project have been pushing lawmakers for this type of legislation. “No other prevalent health condition, including asthma, diabetes and cancer, has coverage limits imposed based on the age of the patient, and I believe age limits do not belong on coverage for autism," said Delegate Bob Thomas (R-Stafford), the patron of the bill.
