Step therapy legislation

Step therapy is a tool used by health plans to control spending on patients' medications.
In 2010, nearly 60% of commercial insurers were using step therapy. As of 2014, 75% of large employers reported offering employees plans that use step therapy.
Step therapy has been shown to have a negative impact on patients, including delayed access to the most effective treatment, disease progression, and significant burdens on health care providers and their patients, as well as increases in health care costs.
