REQUESTING THE AUDITOR TO ASSESS THE SOCIAL AND FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF PROPOSED MANDATORY HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE OF GENERIC OPIOID ANTAGONISTS AND DEVICES.

This bill requests the Auditor to evaluate the social and financial impacts of a proposed mandate requiring health insurers to cover generic opioid antagonists and related devices. The resolution directs the Auditor to prepare a report analyzing costs, benefits, and potential effects on individuals with opioid use disorders, as required by state law before such coverage mandates are enacted. The report must be completed and submitted to the Legislature by late February 2027. This procedural measure does not change insurance coverage itself but ensures a formal assessment is conducted before any related legislation takes effect.
