Pennsylvania SB301 requires pharmacies to disclose medication prices and cost-sharing amounts upon request.
Pennsylvania SB301 amends the Pharmacy Act to mandate that pharmacies disclose specific information about prescription medications upon consumer request. This includes the current retail price of the medication, the cost-sharing amount for the consumer, and information on applying for subsidized health coverage through the state's health insurance exchange. Pharmacies must also provide a disclaimer stating that health care choices should consider other health care and financial circumstances. Failure to comply with these requirements is a summary offense, punishable by a fine of up to $500.
