(1) require clinician-administered drugs to be dispensed only by certain pharmacies or only by pharmacies participating in the health benefit plan issuer's network;

(2) if a clinician-administered drug is otherwise covered, limit or exclude coverage for such drugs based on the enrollee's choice of pharmacy or because the drug was not dispensed by a pharmacy that participates in the health benefit plan issuer's network;

(3) require a physician or health care provider participating in the health benefit plan issuer's network to bill for or be reimbursed for the delivery and administration of clinician-administered drugs under the pharmacy benefit instead of the medical benefit without:

(A) informed written consent of the patient; and

(B) a written attestation by the patient's physician or health care provider that a delay in the drug's administration will not place the patient at an increased health risk; or

(4) require that an enrollee pay an additional fee, higher copay, higher coinsurance, second copay, second coinsurance, or any other price increase for clinician-administered drugs based on the enrollee's choice of pharmacy or because the drug was not dispensed by a pharmacy that participates in the health benefit plan issuer's network.

(b) Subsection (a) applies only if the patient's physician or health care provider determines that:

(1) a delay of care would make disease progression probable; or

(2) the use of a pharmacy within the health benefit plan issuer's network would:
