MORE Savings Act

The MORE Savings Act aims to reduce financial barriers for individuals seeking treatment for opioid use disorders by eliminating out-of-pocket costs for specific services. For Medicare beneficiaries, it establishes a five-year pilot program in 15 selected states that removes coinsurance, copayments, and deductibles for prescription drugs, behavioral health care, and community recovery support. Additionally, the bill mandates that private group health plans and individual insurance policies cover these same opioid treatments without cost-sharing requirements starting in 2027. Finally, it increases the federal funding match to 90 percent for states providing medication-assisted treatment through Medicaid and allows states to include recovery support services in this coverage.
