Health Care and Reproductive Rights in the 2024 Session
2024 Priorities
HB 340/SB 388 - Prescription Drug Affordability Board - This measure would provide the Prescription Drug Affordability Board with authority to make limits on high drug costs to all Marylanders (currently only applies to state and local government employees).
PASSED - HB 691/SB 119 - Gender Affirming Treatment Rights - This bill would update last year’s data-shielding health care laws to include Gender Affirming Care, thereby maintaining the privacy of such care.
