URGE YOUR LEGISLATORS TO VOTE IN FAVOR OF INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR MENOPAUSE

In the United States, roughly 1.3 million women will transition into menopause each year. For many of these women, menopause may be accompanied by symptoms including hot flashes, night sweats, difficulty sleeping, incontinence, mood changes, weight gain, dry skin, muscle and joint pain, and osteoporosis. There are many treatments that can be used to alleviate these symptoms, such as U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved hormone therapy, non-hormonal prescriptions, as well as alternate methods such as increasing exercise and cognitive behavioral therapy. However, many women may not be able to access these treatments and may not be aware that they have options to treat their symptoms.

Urge your legislators to take action and move this bill out of the Insurance Committee!


Your message will be sent to:
Representative Perry Warren; Representative Tina Pickett.

Subject line:
Require Insurance Coverage for Menopause


Email Body:

I strongly support HB 1346, which would require our Insurance companies to provide coverage for hormonal and non-hormonal therapy to treat menopausal symptoms, as long as the therapy is recommended by a health care provider and has been proven safe and effective in peer-reviewed scientific studies. 

I urge you to vote on the bill in the Insurance Committee.

Thank you for your support.
