OKLAHOMA CITY -
Health care advocates are celebrating the passage of House Bill 1019 this week. The bill supports affordable access to insulin for diabetes patients by instituting a price cap on insulin copays.
Senator Carri Hicks co-authored the bipartisan bill.
“For individuals with diabetes obviously it’s a chronic illness. It’s not going away. Ultimately, being able to afford your medications to live is obviously an essential component, “Hicks said. “So, reducing that cost to a manageable amount for Oklahomans will have lifesaving consequences.”
Hicks said one vial of insulin costs about $300. Some people might need several vials per month.

From being elected student council co-president working for Antler Vision to marketing and PR, Hayward can juggle it all while focusing on being a helper in finding the best steps for Deer Creek to take during the pandemic.
