The full story

The committee heard from the sponsor that House Bill 38 would allow coverage for up to two complex rehabilitation technology devices — CRTs — based on an insured person's medical, physical, functional and environmental needs, and limited to two devices once every three years. "This bill would allow coverage for up to 2 CRTs," the sponsor told the committee, explaining that CRTs are complex rehabilitation technology devices tailored to an insured person’s needs and that the coverage is not annual but limited to two devices in a three‑year period.
