The Indiana General Assembly reconvened on Monday. Since it’s a budget year, legislation on a wide range of topics is on the table.
INDIANAPOLS— Both Indiana Senate Republicans and Democrats announced what their focus will be over the next four months.
WHY: Statehouse Republicans have paid down this pension obligation by $4 billion in the past few years alone. The sooner Indiana pays off this unfunded liability, the sooner $1 billion per year is freed up in the state budget for transformational tax cuts and important public needs.Senate Bill 2 [iga.in.gov], authored by State Sen. Scott Baldwin
WHAT: Increase the quality of services performed by Indiana's local health departments and promote collaboration between local health departments and the Indiana Department of Health WHY: It's common for PBMs to negotiate contracts with drug companies so a PBM gets a rebate every time a person covered by their plan gets certain prescriptions. SB 8 would ensure those savings go to the person or plan that bought the medicine.Senate Bill 7 [iga.in.gov], authored by State Sen. Justin Busch WHY: Enabling doctors to compete on their own terms will help promote competition in the health care marketplace and help lower prices.
WHAT: Creates a"bill of rights" for Hoosier data privacy that would allow consumers to monitor how their data is being used and have it deleted if they wish
