Chapter 44 of the Insurance Department Rules and Regulations was filed with the Secretary of State for adoption on December 26, 2012, with an effective date of December 31, 2012.

Chapter 44 entitled, “Scope of Coverage to be Offered by the Nebraska Comprehensive Health Insurance Pool” was amended to refine the benefits for the scope of coverage offered to an insured on the Comprehensive Health Insurance Pool’s plan. Specifically, the amendment removed the allotted time for coverage of outpatient rehabilitation services provided to cardiac and pulmonary patients and allows service to be provided as medically necessary.

Copies of Chapter 44 may be obtained by forwarding a check in the amount of $6.00 for each copy requested made payable to the Nebraska Department of Insurance, 941 O Street, Suite 400, Lincoln, Nebraska 68508, and through the Department’s website at www.doi.ne.gov.
