OLYMPIA, Wash. — Washington state Insurance Commissioner Patty Kuderer issued an emergency order on Thursday, Aug. 6, to allow the survivors of the state’s recent wildfires streamlined access to their prescription medications.

The emergency order directs insurers to:


* Allow enrollees to obtain a one-time refill of covered prescription pharmaceuticals before the expiration of the waiting period between refills.
* Allow a grace period for payment of premiums of at least 60 days for individual and group health plans.
* Not cancel health plans for nonpayment of premiums.
