Bill 118 HR 1262, also known as the CCU Parity Act of 2023, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The purpose of this bill is to address disparities in coverage for critical care units (CCUs) under health insurance plans.

The CCU Parity Act of 2023 aims to ensure that individuals who require treatment in a CCU receive the same level of coverage and benefits as those receiving treatment in other hospital units. This includes coverage for medical services, medications, and other necessary treatments.

The bill also seeks to prevent insurance companies from imposing higher out-of-pocket costs or placing restrictions on coverage for individuals receiving care in a CCU. By establishing parity in coverage for CCU patients, the legislation aims to improve access to critical care services and ensure that all individuals receive the care they need without facing financial barriers. Overall, the CCU Parity Act of 2023 is designed to promote fairness and equity in health insurance coverage for individuals requiring treatment in critical care units. It is currently under review in Congress and may undergo further revisions before potentially being passed into law.
