HB 1135 requires health insurers, health plans, and other entities that provide health coverage in South Dakota to be transparent about how they price prescription drugs. The bill establishes definitions and oversight authority for monitoring drug pricing practices by these covered entities to help ensure South Dakotans have clearer information about what they're paying for medications.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
