On May 21, 2026, the New Jersey State Senate introduced Bill S4329, which would require health insurance carriers to cover medically necessary sepsis-related services and treatments as determined by the treating physician. The Bill would also require that sepsis-related care be covered on the same terms as any other medical condition, prohibiting insurers from imposing special restrictions or reduced benefits for sepsis treatment. The Bill is intended to ensure that covered New Jersey residents have access to insurance benefits for sepsis diagnosis and treatment.
