More epinephrine options with lower costs

New York's epinephrine device rules now include FDA-approved nasal sprays that deliver a premeasured dose for severe allergic emergencies. Covered major medical plans with prescription drug benefits must cover medically necessary devices for life-threatening allergic reactions. Annual out-of-pocket costs for these devices are capped at $100, regardless of other deductibles or coinsurance. Plans may apply their annual deductible when the cap would disqualify them for health savings accounts. However, federally defined preventive care still has the $100 cap.
