Summary

The bill would force health plans to join any filed claim dispute, pay providers within a set period and face daily fines if they do not. It also adds strict timelines for credentialing, requires managed‑care plans to report any ownership or affiliation with providers or service companies, and obligates insurers to notify both patients and their doctors before denying a previously authorized service. The goal is to increase transparency and protect providers and patients from delayed payments and hidden conflicts of interest.
