N.Y. Fam. Ct. Act § 581-604 — Health insurance and medical costs

§ 581-604. Health insurance and medical costs. A person acting as surrogate has the right to have a comprehensive health insurance policy that covers preconception care, prenatal care, major medical treatments, hospitalization and behavioral care for a term that extends throughout the duration of the expected pregnancy and for twelve months after the birth of the child, a stillbirth, a miscarriage resulting in termination of pregnancy, or termination of the pregnancy, to be paid for by the intended parent or parents. The intended parent or parents shall also pay for or reimburse the person acting as surrogate for all co-payments, deductibles and any other out-of-pocket medical costs associated with pregnancy, childbirth, or postnatal care that accrue through twelve months after the birth of the child, a stillbirth, a miscarriage, or the termination of the pregnancy. A person acting as a surrogate who is receiving no compensation may waive the right to have the intended parent or parents make such payments or reimbursements.
