If you’ve ever used #copay #assistance programs to help pay for your medications, you know what a lifesaver those programs are. But not if your health insurer doesn’t count them towards meeting your deductible. Two bills #H1053 and #S644 will protect… dlvr.it/SHvxC2
Thank you @JDMesnard!
Thank you @recobbforazrep!
Thank you @TylerPaceAZ!
Thank you @VinceLeach!
Thank you @NancyBarto! #SB1270 passed and has now been signed!
THANK YOU TO THE ARIZONA LEGISLATURE FOR PASSING #SB1270! Special thanks to sponsor @NancyBarto & co-sponsors @VinceLeach @NavarreteAZ @TylerPaceAZ @JDMesnard & @recobbforazrep. Next step needed is @DougDucey’s signature to become law! #stepforward
This week the #AZHouse can vote YES on #SB1270 putting patient health first & say NO 2 “fail first” policies that interfere with the Dr- Patient relationship. That’s why it’s supported by over 40 patient advocate groups. TY 2 sponsor @NancyBarto for your leadership. #whyfailfirst
Step therapy needs our attention. dlvr.it/S07Mxs
Doctors, not insurance companies, know what the best course of treatment is for their patients. #steptherapy #SB1270 #whyfailfirst yourvalley.net/stories/rep-ba…
Your doctor is a necessary part of your healthcare. @NancyBarto introduced #SB1270 putting protections in place around doctors’ medical decisions for their patients. That’s why over 40 patient groups support SB1270, placing safeguards on the insurance protocol of #steptherapy
#steptherapy "This places an undue burden on the patient, their support system, and the physician. It slows the progression to health, keeping the person sicker longer." dlvr.it/RyjMKt
If you have been forced to #failfirst share your story with us and send us a message. #steptherapy
"But most of all, [Step Therapy] has endangered the progress toward quality of life for our son. We hope to change that at the Legislature." dlvr.it/RyJSCt
Insurers demanded our son stop a helpful medication because of a dangerous protocol called step therapy. An Arizona bill would bring needed reform. rssfeeds.azcentral.com/~/649875006/0/…
Thank you to the Goldstein family for sharing your story and advocating for #steptherapy reforms! #SB1270 #whyfailfirst azcentral.com/story/opinion/…
The @AzPsychSociety President @jchhatwalmd thanks @NancyBarto @recobbforazrep and fellow Senate co-sponsors for #SB1270 and looks optimistically to the House vote to move #steptherapy forward to Governor @DougDucey providing important guardrails to care azcapitoltimes.com/news/2021/04/0…
@NancyBarto's Step Therapy bill didn't get a vote today in the House. Reforms are imperative for many patients, including mental health patients. Being on the wrong drug=disease progression, lost productivity, pain, inability to fully participate in daily activities & worse
