Health Resources and Services Administration [HRSA], U.S. Department of Health and Human Services [HHS] Link to more items from this source
[Official Guidance]
Jan. 11, 2022

"[The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) has] accepted updates to existing guidelines ... regarding breastfeeding services and supplies, well-woman preventive care visits, access to contraceptives and contraceptive counseling, screening for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and counseling for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). These updates include, for the first time, requiring coverage without cost-sharing for double electric breast pumps. HHS also approved a new guideline aiming to prevent and reduce obesity in midlife women (ages 40 to 60) through counseling.... HRSA also accepted updates to existing Bright Futures guidelines [which] include adding universal screening for suicide risk ... for individuals ages 12 to 21, and new guidance for behavioral, social and emotional screening. HRSA has also accepted new guidelines for assessing risks for cardiac arrest or death for individuals ages 11 to 21 and assessing risks for hepatitis B virus infection in newborn to 21 year-olds." [HRSA guidelines, both existing and updated, are available online.]
