Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Public Aid Code. Provides that the Department shall not impose requirements for prior approval based on a preferred drug list for any short-acting beta agonists used as rescue therapy in the treatment of life-threatening conditions due to acute bronchospasm in patients with reversible obstructive airway disease that results from asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or emphysema.

 Fiscal Note (Department of Public Aid)
 This bill will hamper the Department's ability to enact cost containment measures if prior approval, generic preference and formulary restrictions are exempt for clients diagnosed with a specific disease such as reversible obstructive airway disease. If the Department is unable to require prior approval on any products of this type, the additional cost is estimated to be $2-5 million.
