ROBACH -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Health AN ACT to amend the public health law, the social services law and the insurance law, in relation to providing that persons with hemophilia and other clotting protein deficiencies who are otherwise eligible for the Child Health Plus, Family Health Plus, and Healthy New York programs shall have access to reimbursement for outpatient blood clot- ting factor concentrates and other necessary treatments and services THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative findings. Hemophilia is a rare hereditary bleeding disorder resulting from a deficiency in blood proteins known as clotting factors. Without an adequate supply of clotting factors, indi- viduals can experience prolonged bleeding following routine medical and dental procedures, trauma, and a range of physical activities. Addi- tionally, individuals with hemophilia often experience spontaneous internal bleeding that can cause severe joint damage, chronic pain, and even death. Prior to the 1970s, individuals with hemophilia seldom lived beyond the age of 30 years. Early treatment consisted of whole blood and plasma transfusions at hospitals. These treatments were difficult, time consum- ing and only minimally effective. The advent of commercially prepared blood clotting factors in the 1980s represented a major advance in treatment, both in terms of efficacy and convenience. Most importantly, these advances allowed for home infusion. In addition to hemophilia, there are several other disorders resulting from blood protein deficiencies. These include Von Willebrand Disease (VWD), the most common bleeding disorder, affecting approximately two million Americans. Individuals with the severest form of VWD rely on clotting factor treatments similar to those used by individuals with hemophilia.
