SB 43 - This act allows an individual who is sixty-five years of age or older a maximum credit of $1000 for offsetting the cost of drugs and medicines on the Medicaid formulary.

The act contains a provision instructing the Missouri Department of Revenue to notify all individuals who may be eligible to take the tax credit.
