What it does
The Capping Prescription Costs Act of 2025 would limit out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs by capping annual cost-sharing at $2,000 per individual and $4,000 per family for qualified health plans starting in 2026, with adjustments for inflation thereafter. The bill extends these caps to group health plans through amendments to the Public Health Service Act, ERISA, and the Internal Revenue Code, requiring insurers and plan administrators to comply. The provisions would take effect for plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2026.
