Summary

The bill would make health insurers and pharmacy benefit managers include any payments for medications without a generic substitute when calculating an enrollee’s out‑of‑pocket maximum or other cost‑sharing. It also stops them from adjusting those limits based on whether a cost‑sharing assistance program exists for such drugs. The measure applies to most health plans starting in August 2026.
