What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill prevents every health insurance policy and every self-insured

auto-injectors from imposing cost sharing in an amount that exceeds $60 for a

twin-pack of epinephrine auto-injectors, regardless of the type of epinephrine

auto-injector. Health insurance policies are referred to in the bill as disability

insurance policies.

This proposal may contain a health insurance mandate requiring a social and

financial impact report under s. 601.423, stats.
