AI Summary

This bill requires health insurers in Michigan to provide coverage for a 12-month supply of prescription contraceptives, unless a smaller supply is requested or medically necessary. The bill also requires coverage for related medical services, such as consultations and procedures to administer or remove the contraceptives. The bill prohibits insurers from imposing utilization controls or other limitations on the 12-month supply, unless clinical trials show a 12-month supply is medically inappropriate. The bill defines key terms like "pharmacy" and "prescription contraceptive" and specifies that it applies to health insurance policies delivered, issued, or renewed in Michigan or covering Michigan residents, starting 90 days after the bill is enacted.
