An Act

to create
632.895 (12r) of the statutes;
relating to:

2
cost-sharing cap on epinephrine delivery systems under health insurance

policies and plans.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill prevents every health insurance policy and every self-insured governmental health plan that covers medically necessary epinephrine delivery systems from imposing cost sharing in an amount that exceeds $60 for two doses of the epinephrine delivery system, regardless of the type of epinephrine delivery system. The bill defines “epinephrine delivery system” to mean a device that is approved by the federal Food and Drug Administration, that contains a premeasured dose of epinephrine, and that is used to administer epinephrine into the human body to prevent or treat a life-threatening allergic reaction. Health insurance policies are referred to in the bill as disability insurance policies.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
This proposal may contain a health insurance mandate requiring a social and financial impact report under s. 601.423, stats.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
