An Act relative to epinephrine injectors

This bill requires all Massachusetts health insurance plans to cover epinephrine injectors, such as EpiPens and pre-filled syringes, for active and retired state employees, Medicaid recipients, and individuals with private insurance. The law mandates that these devices be treated as standard prescription drugs, meaning they cannot have higher deductibles, copayments, or out-of-pocket limits than other covered medications. By defining epinephrine injectors as FDA-approved auto-injectors or equivalent pre-measured syringes, the legislation ensures consistent access to life-saving allergy treatment across different insurance programs within the state.
