Summary

The bill would expand Florida’s statewide claim‑dispute program to cover denied prior‑authorization requests and make participation compulsory for both providers and health plans. It also bars insurers from requiring credit‑card‑only payment contracts, permits electronic funds transfers, and forbids fees for electronic claim payments. The goal is to speed up billing dispute resolution and protect providers from unfair payment terms.
