AI Summary
This bill amends the Minnesota Statutes to allow medical assistance coverage for drugs and pharmaceutical ingredients used for weight loss. The bill removes the current exclusion of drugs or active pharmaceutical ingredients used for weight loss from the state's drug formulary, except for medically necessary lipase inhibitors for individuals with type 2 diabetes. This change provides medical assistance coverage for a broader range of weight loss drugs and pharmaceutical ingredients, which were previously excluded from the state's drug formulary.
