Summary

The bill caps annual out‑of‑pocket costs for prescription drugs at $2,000 per person and requires insurers to charge in‑network rates for non‑emergency care performed at network facilities. It also stops hospitals from sending unpaid bills to collectors or credit bureaus until after 180 days and obligates hospitals to report detailed price data for common procedures. These measures aim to lower overall health‑care costs and give patients clearer information.
