Referred to Rules Committee
Summary
The bill bars health insurance issuers in Illinois from refusing participation in policies based on a provider’s status, as long as the provider is practicing within their licensed scope. It does not force insurers to contract with every provider who meets their terms, and it permits insurers to set different payment rates tied to quality or performance. This aims to balance provider access with insurers’ ability to manage networks and reimbursements.
