Title
Health benefit plans and prescription drugs, same copayment, coinsurance, deductible, and quantity limits within same employer group, drug changes
Description

Under existing law, a health benefit plan contracts with pharmacies to deliver drug prescriptions to enrollees of the health benefit plan.

This bill would require a health benefit plan to apply the same coinsurance, copayment, deductible, and quantity limits within the same employer group and other plan-sponsored group to all drug prescriptions, prescriptions filled by a pharmacy provider who participates in the health benefit plan's network, would prohibit a quantity limitation unless uniformly applied, and prohibit a mandated drug change by a health benefit plan.
