On May 11, 2026, HB 1138 was signed into law which authorizes pharmacists to dispense or administer hormonal contraceptives under certain conditions, provided they follow a joint protocol established by the Department of Public Health and Board of Pharmacy.  Health insurers and Medicaid must cover contraceptive supplies, providing an initial three-month supply and then a 12-month supply thereafter.

The joint protocol is expected to take effect January 1, 2027.
