The Honorable William Sutton, Chairperson
House Committee on Insurance
300 SW 10th Avenue, Room 218-N
Topeka, Kansas 66612
Dear Representative Sutton:
SUBJECT: Fiscal Note for HB 2099 by House Committee on Insurance
In accordance with KSA 75-3715a, the following fiscal note concerning HB 2099 is
respectfully submitted to your committee.
Currently, the Pharmacy Benefits Manager (PBMs) Licensure Act does not apply to a
pharmacy benefits manager that holds a certificate of registration as a third-party administrator
(TPA). HB 2099 would no longer exempt PBMs that are also a TPA.
The Kansas Insurance Department states that there are TPAs that might want to submit a
PBM application if this bill were enacted. The agency estimates that three TPAs will submit a
PBM application at the beginning of FY 2024 at a cost of $2,500, which would have a renewal
date of March 31, 2024, at a cost of $2,500. Therefore, the Department would receive $15,000 (3
X $5,000) into its PMB Licensure Fund in FY 2024. Any fiscal effect associated with HB 2099
is not reflected in The FY 2024 Governor’s Budget Report.
Sincerely,
Adam Proffitt
Director of the Budget
