Michigan SB1034 requires health insurers to cover prescription inhalers for asthma and other life-threatening bronchial ailments without cost-sharing.

Michigan SB1034 amends the state's insurance laws to mandate that health insurers provide coverage for prescription inhalers, which are medical devices delivering inhaled medications for asthma and other severe respiratory conditions. The bill specifies that these inhalers include metered-dose inhalers, nebulizers, and dry powder inhalers. Insurers must cover these inhalers at no cost to the insured, regardless of any restrictions on refills. This change aims to ensure that individuals with chronic respiratory conditions have access to necessary treatments without financial barriers.
