This legislation amends the Public Health Service Act to require group health plans and health insurance issuers to allow enrollees to obtain a 365-day supply of contraceptives . This provision ensures that individuals can receive their full year's supply in a single fill or refill, at their option, without incurring any additional cost-sharing requirements. The new mandate will become effective for plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2026. Furthermore, the Secretaries of Health and Human Services, Labor, and the Treasury are directed to conduct joint outreach activities to inform both healthcare providers and individuals about these updated benefit requirements.
