A disability insurance policy that is issued, delivered or renewed by a disability insurer on or after January 1, 2016 and that provides coverage both for cancer treatment medications that are injected or intravenously administered by a health care provider and for patient-administered cancer treatment medications, including medications that are orally administered or self-injected, may not require a higher copayment, deductible or coinsurance amount for patient-administered cancer treatment medications than is required for those cancer treatment medications that are injected or intravenously administered by a health care provider, regardless of the formulation or benefit category.B. A disability insurer may not increase copayment, deductible or coinsurance amounts for covered cancer treatment medications that are injected or intravenously administered in order to avoid compliance with subsection A of this section, but may increase copayment, deductible or coinsurance amounts for cancer treatment medications if the increase is applied generally to other medical or pharmaceutical benefits under the policy and is not done to circumvent subsection A of this section.C. A disability insurer may not reclassify benefits with respect to cancer treatment medications in a manner that is inconsistent with this section.D. For the purposes of this section, "cancer treatment medications" means prescription drugs and biologics that are used to kill, slow or prevent the growth of cancerous cells.Added by L. 2014, ch. 255,s. 3, eff. 7/24/2014.
