    Women make up more than 50% of the population, yet #menopause remains one of the most overlooked and underfunded healthcare issues. Too many women are misdiagnosed, dismissed, or forced to pay out-of-pocket for essential care. New Jersey can – and should – do better. In this episode of State House Minute, we're breaking down Assemblywoman Simmons new Menopause Bill Package with Assemblyman Dave Bailey, Jr. New Jersey is only the second state in the nation to introduce legislation addressing this critical issue. The bills include: The New Jersey Menopause Coverage Act - Ensures insurance coverage for all perimenopause and menopause-related services and treatments The Women’s Health and Menopause Education Act - Equips doctors with menopause education as part of their continuing licensure It’s time to recognize menopause for what it is: a major health transition that deserves real – and covered – medical attention and support. These bills will put New Jersey on the leading edge of women’s healthcare and menopause services.
