S 2812 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires DOH to maintain emergency stockpile of insulin and authorizes dispensing of emergency supply of insulin to certain patients.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Health to maintain an emergency insulin stockpile with the 10 most common insulin types used by residents, reevaluated quarterly. It creates a program to provide one emergency 30-day insulin supply per year at cost to residents whose supply runs out before their next prescription, with reimbursement options from health plans. The bill also updates insurance coverage requirements to mandate benefits for one emergency insulin supply annually under health plans. It applies directly to New Jersey residents facing insulin shortages and establishes clear limits on emergency dispensing to prevent overuse.
