AN ACT CONCERNING TWELVE-MONTH COVERAGE FOR CONTRACEPTION AND HORMONE THERAPY.

This bill requires health insurance plans and Medicaid to cover a twelve-month supply of prescription contraception and hormone therapy at one time, effective January 1, 2027. It applies to individuals with private insurance and Medicaid enrollees, allowing them to receive up to one year of medication and administration supplies in a single dispensation unless they or their provider request less. The law excludes certain drugs like glucagon-like peptide-1 agonists from hormone therapy coverage and permits health plans to use standard drug management rules, including limiting refills near the end of a plan year if the full supply was already provided.
