CONCORD — State Rep. Garrett Muscatel (D-Hanover) and State Sen. Dan Feltes (D-Concord) announced the filing of legislation to prohibit insurers from charging patients more than $100 for a 30-day supply of insulin.

Modeled after legislation recently signed into law in Colorado, the New Hampshire bill seeks to address dramatic price increases in recent years that have forced some diabetics to ration or forego taking insulin at significant risk to their health.
