LB457

Nebraska LB457 mandates anaphylaxis policies for schools and child care programs and limits insurance costs for epinephrine injectors.

Nebraska LB457 requires school districts and licensed child care programs to adopt policies addressing anaphylaxis incidents. These policies must include prevention strategies, emergency protocols, and communication plans for children and parents. The Department of Health and Human Services, in consultation with the State Department of Education, will develop model policies for these programs. Additionally, the bill limits the out-of-pocket cost for medically necessary epinephrine injectors to $60 per two-pack, effective July 1, 2026.
