HB 729 | Alternative Payment Method for Medicaid-Covered Prescription Drugs

Montana rations lifesaving drugs. Other states do not. That’s a fact. This bill would have worked to remedy that moral failing by saving the state money in purchasing these drugs.

  • Provides for cost savings and increase access to prescription drugs by using a subscription model as an alternative payment method for high-cost or specialty drugs.
