Digest
HB 2616 allows certain health benefit plan issuers, including accident and health insurance companies and health maintenance organizations, to enter into contracts that provide access to healthcare practitioners for insureds or enrollees of other contracting issuers. These contracts may use various compensation arrangements, including fee-for-service, risk-sharing, and capitation models. However, the bill limits the compensation of healthcare practitioners under these agreements to a fee-for-service model, preventing alternative payment structures for direct provider compensation.
