What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

This bill requires certain disability insurance policies, also known as health insurance policies, and self-insured governmental and school district health plans to cover a dispensing of contraceptives that is intended to last for three months for the first dispensing and a dispensing of contraceptives that is intended to last for 12 months for subsequent dispensings of that contraceptive. Contraceptives are drugs or devices approved by the federal Food and Drug Administration to prevent pregnancy. Under current law, those policies and plans must cover the cost of contraceptives prescribed by a health care provider and of services that are necessary to prescribe, administer, maintain, or remove the contraceptive. The coverage requirement under the bill does not apply to a dispensing of a contraceptive that expires or becomes ineffective in less than 12 months.
