Non-Medical Switching means commercial insurance plans often stop covering drugs or they move drugs to new formulary “tiers” that result in higher out of pocket costs for patients. This practice can put the stability of a patient’s health at risk, and can be cost prohibitive due to emergency room admissions, hospitalizations, and complications.

Legislators need to know you support Senate bill S.5022-A and Assembly bill A.2317-A. The legislative session ends on June 21st and your voice is critical. Please call and email your legislator today!
