A brief summary of language in HR3200 that address autism from the Autism Society of America:
These proposals include provisions that prohibit companies from excluding coverage based on pre-existing conditions, including autism; prohibit annual and lifetime spending caps; and require that companies cover habilitative and other lifespan care. Moreover, the amendment that Representative Mike Doyle added to the House Bill, HR 3200, requires that companies cover behavioral health treatments as part of the essential coverage package. The Doyle amendment, and his many other advocacy efforts, has kept the interests of people affected by autism in the debate.
