A bill for an act relating to pharmacy benefits managers, pharmacies, and prescription drug benefits, and including applicability provisions.

This bill clarifies rules for pharmacy benefits managers (PBMs) and prescription drug benefits in Iowa. It ensures that money spent on prescription drugs counts towards a person's health plan deductible and prevents PBMs from forcing people to use mail-order pharmacies. The bill also states that people can fill prescriptions at any in-state pharmacy that agrees to the same terms as their plan, and PBMs cannot charge different fees based on where a prescription is filled.
