AZ HB2777

Requires health insurers, health care services organizations, and disability insurers in Arizona to cover tobacco cessation services following U.S. Public Health Service 2008 clinical practice guidelines or successors.

Mandates coverage includes at least two courses of treatment per 12-month period, personal counseling (by telephone, group, or individual settings), and all FDA-approved medications with no cost-sharing (deductibles, copayments, or coinsurance).

Prohibits requiring enrollees to undergo counseling to receive medication coverage and bans prior authorization or stepped care requirements for tobacco cessation treatment.

Defines "course of treatment" as at least four counseling sessions of 10+ minutes each, or the FDA-approved duration for prescription and over-the-counter medications.

Applies to subscription contracts, health care services organization policies, individual disability insurance policies, group disability policies, and blanket disability policies, but excludes limited benefit coverage.
