Bill overview
This bill, An Act relative to pharmaceutical gag clauses, aims to address restrictions placed on pharmacists by pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) and health insurance companies. Specifically, it seeks to prohibit agreements, known as ‘gag clauses,’ that prevent pharmacists from informing patients about lower-cost medications or offering alternative drugs. The bill intends to ensure patients have access to the full range of treatment options available to them. It builds upon previous legislative efforts to tackle similar issues.
