AI Summary

  • Establishes a formal definition of "covered insulin" as any validly prescribed drug containing insulin for diabetes treatment, excluding products labeled only for intravenous infusion.

  • Removes the previous requirement that insulin must be "self-administered on an outpatient basis" to qualify for the safety net program.

  • Exempts insulin products from the program if the wholesale acquisition cost is $8 or less per milliliter, adjusted annually for inflation.

  • Modifies manufacturer registration fee exemptions to reference "covered insulin" rather than "prescription insulin," with exemptions available for manufacturers with less than 5% of total Minnesota insulin sales or annual gross revenue under $2,000,000.

  • Repeals the program satisfaction survey requirement (subdivision 15) that had mandated the commissioner of health to survey individuals and pharmacies about their experience with the insulin safety net program.
