Help start a legislative revolution!
Florida Senate Bill S0482, a bill
mandating full comprehensive health insurance coverage for
infants, toddlers, and children with plagiocephaly,
brachycephaly, scaphocephaly, and other craniofacial structural
head deformities and birth defects starting in January of 2007,
needs your help. The bill is wanting to be "agenda" to the
Senate Banking and Insurance Committee. Once approved and passed
by this committee, the bill will proceed onto the Florida Senate
Healthcare, then the Ways and Means Committees, and then finally
onto the Senate Floor for a vote. [Similar legislation has
been proposed in the Florida House of Representatives as
House Bill, HB 797.]
