to Committee on Committees (S)
Summary
The bill amends Kentucky law so that any step‑therapy protocol used by insurers, health plans, pharmacy benefit managers or private review agents must be grounded in clinical practice guidelines created by a multidisciplinary, conflict‑free panel and updated regularly. It also obligates these entities to post the criteria online and give doctors and patients a clear, electronic way to request and receive step‑therapy exceptions within 48 hours. The aim is to make drug‑coverage decisions more transparent and quicker for patients.
