This bill aims to make insulin more affordable for children, teens, and young adults up to age 26 by setting rules on what they have to pay out of pocket under private health insurance plans. It creates a new section focused on “requirements with respect to cost-sharing for certain insulin products,” meaning plans would have to follow specific limits for what patients pay at the pharmacy (like copays or coinsurance) for insulin.
