RE: Federal Health Insurance Requirements

All health insurance policies filed for use in

the State of Alabama must comply with all federal health insurance

requirements, including those required in the Health Insurance Portability and

Accountability Act of 1996, the Newborns' and Mothers' Health Protection Act of

1996, the Mental Health Parity Act of 1996 and the Women's Health and Cancer

Rights Act of 1998. Any policy or form filed with this Department that fails to

meet these federal requirements will be disapproved for use in this state.
