New York S06168 amends the insurance law to ensure continuous coverage of single source drugs until a prescribed therapy is no longer medically.

New York S06168 amends the insurance law to mandate that every insurance policy providing coverage for prescription drugs must ensure continuous coverage of a single source drug as part of a prescribed therapy until such therapy is no longer medically necessary. A "single source drug" is defined as a brandname drug for which there is no generic equivalent. The bill applies to policies and contracts issued, renewed, or amended after its effective date, which is 60 days after it becomes law.
