Health Insurance and Dental Plan Organizations - Dentists - Assignment of Benefits and Reimbursement of Nonpreferred Providers
Approved by the Governor - Chapter 737
Summary
The law bars health insurers and dental plan organizations from refusing an assignment of benefits to a dentist or from refusing to pay a non‑preferred dentist directly. It also forces non‑preferred dentists to give patients clear cost and billing information before treatment and to file a disclosure form. The changes aim to improve transparency and ensure patients can use their benefits with any dentist.
