Bill > H3487

This bill requires health insurance providers in Massachusetts to cover "prescription medication synchronization," which means dispensing all medications prescribed to a patient on the same schedule to ensure the patient receives all prescriptions simultaneously. The bill mandates that insurers must provide this coverage at the election of the patient, prescribing provider, or pharmacist, including coverage for dispensing partial prescriptions, and stipulates that any dispensing fees for partial prescriptions cannot be prorated and must be paid in full. The bill amends the relevant insurance laws in the state to implement these requirements across different types of health plans, including those offered by the state's Group Insurance Commission, MassHealth (the state's Medicaid program), and private insurers.
