Bill overview
This bill establishes rules to prevent pharmacies and healthcare providers from charging excessive prices for prescription drugs in Nevada. It prohibits charging more than the maximum fair price set by the federal government for these drugs and creates a legal cause of action for consumers who are overcharged. While it exempts certain federal healthcare providers, it aligns Nevada law with federal efforts to control drug costs and protects consumers from deceptive trade practices related to drug pricing.
