Coverage for Oral Anti-Cancer Medications Revised


Under current law, group health plans that provide coverage for prescribed, orally administered anti-cancer medications cannot impose a cost sharing amount greater than $200 for a 30-day supply for such medication. On Sept. 17, 2018, Gov. Brown signed AB 1860 into law, which increases the permissible cost sharing limit to $250. The law is effective Jan. 1, 2019 and will expire Jan. 1, 2024 unless further legislative action is taken.
