Summary

The bill adds new sections to many insurance and health‑care statutes requiring that any pre‑exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) drug be covered without co‑pays, deductibles, prior‑authorizations, step‑therapy or other delays. It also lets licensed pharmacists prescribe and dispense PrEP and requires state and county prisons to counsel, evaluate and provide PrEP to eligible inmates before release. The goal is to remove financial and administrative barriers so more people can obtain HIV‑prevention medication.
