Newborns’ and Mothers’ Health Protection Act. “NMHPA”). Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, this Plan shall be operated and maintained in a manner consistent with NMHPA. Federal law requires the following statement be included in the Plan document, verbatim: Under federal law, group health plans and health insurance issuers offering group health insurance generally may not restrict benefits for any hospital length of stay in connection with childbirth for the mother or newborn child to less than 48 hours following a vaginal delivery, or less than 96 hours following a cesarean section. However, the plan or issuer may pay for a shorter stay if the attending physician (e.g., your physician, nurse, or midwife, or a physician assistant), after consultation with the mother, discharges the mother or newborn earlier. Also, under federal law, plans and issuers may not set the level of benefits or out-of-pocket costs so that any later portion of the 48-hour (or 96-hour) stay is treated in a manner less favorable to the mother or newborn than any earlier portion of the stay. In addition, a plan or issuer may not, under federal law, require that a physician or other health care provider obtain authorization for prescribing a length of stay of up 48 hours (or 96 hours). However, to use certain providers or facilities, or to reduce out-of-pocket costs, a Participant may be required to obtain precertification. For information on pre-certification, contact the Plan Administrator.

Newborns’ and Mothers’ Health Protection Act. The Newborns' and Mothers' Health Protection Act of 1996 (NMHPA) affects the amount of time you and your newborn child are covered for a hospital stay following childbirth. In general, health insurance issuers and Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) may not restrict benefits for a hospital stay in connection with childbirth to less than 48 hours following delivery (96 hours following a delivery by cesarean section). If you deliver in the hospital, the 48-hour (or 96-hour) period starts at the time of delivery. If you deliver outside the hospital and you are later admitted to the hospital in connection with childbirth, the period begins at the time of the admission. Also, a health insurance issuer or HMO cannot require you or your attending provider to obtain prior authorization for your delivery or show that the 48-hour (or 96-hour) stay is medically necessary. However, a health insurance issuer or HMO may require you to get prior authorization for any portion of a stay after the 48 hours (or 96 hours).
