AI Summary

This bill requires certain health carriers and pharmacy benefits managers in Connecticut to give credit for payments made by third parties when calculating an insured's or enrollee's cost-sharing liability for a covered benefit, such as coinsurance, copayments, or deductibles. This applies to individual and group health insurance policies, managed care plans, and the administration of pharmacy benefits.
