Primary HB 1118

In committee · Missouri House · Lead sponsor

Creates provisions relating to abuse-deterrent opioid analgesic drug products

Maddy summaryHB 1118 requires health insurance plans to cover at least one abuse-deterrent opioid analgesic drug per active ingredient, ensuring patients have access to formulations designed to reduce misuse. It limits patient cost-sharing (like copays) for these drugs to the same level as non-abuse-deterrent opioids, preventing higher out-of-pocket costs. The bill also prohibits insurers from denying coverage or requiring prior authorization for abuse-deterrent opioids based on the need to first try non-abuse-deterrent alternatives. This directly affects insurance companies, patients prescribed opioids for pain, and healthcare providers.

HealthcareSupports HealthcareMandates insurance coverage for abuse-deterrent opioids with equal cost-sharing, improving patient access to safer pain management options without financial barriers.90% confidence

Signed into law · Missouri House · Lead sponsor

Establishes provisions relating to the use of real property

Maddy summaryThis bill prevents Missouri counties, cities, and other local governments from creating or enforcing their own bans on eviction proceedings. The law requires that any such moratoriums must be explicitly authorized by state legislation before they can take effect. By restricting local authority in this area, the measure ensures that decisions about halting evictions are made at the state level rather than by individual municipalities.
