Concerning coverage for HIV antiviral drugs.

Summary

The law requires any health plan issued or renewed after Jan 1 2027 to provide coverage for every FDA‑approved HIV antiviral drug without prior authorization, step therapy, or other utilization‑management rules, unless a therapeutic equivalent is already covered without those restrictions. It also expands existing insurance statutes to apply a wide range of regulatory provisions to all medical insurance plans. The measure aims to improve access to HIV treatment for Washington residents.
