Bill Summary

A bill to amend 1956 PA 218, entitled"The insurance code of 1956,"by amending section 3406o (MCL 500.3406o), as amended by 2020 PA 322; and to repeal acts and parts of acts.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 3406o of the Insurance Code of 1956 to repeal Section 3406w, which previously required health insurers to provide coverage for emergency refills of prescription medication for up to a 30-day supply. The bill maintains the existing requirements for insurers to provide a process for exceptions to formulary limitations and to make determinations on coverage for non-formulary alternatives within specified timeframes. However, it removes the specific provision related to emergency prescription refills.
