Arizona Step-Therapy Legislation Signed into Law

posted: August 2, 2021

With the assistance of the State Access to Innovative Medicines Coalition (SAIM) and the Coalition of State Rheumatology Organizations (CSRO) Arizona SB 1270 was signed into law by Arizona’s Governor. The new law will go into effect on January 1, 2022, and will help patients get access to the right treatment at the right time by:

  • Standardizing determination/response timelines
  • Allowing prescribers to override a step therapy protocol under certain circumstances.
  • Requiring that step therapy protocols follow minimum evidentiary standards.
