HB 335 amends Section 1451.206(a) of the Texas Insurance Code, modifying requirements for payments and reimbursements to dentists under certain health benefit plans. The bill mandates that health insurance policies provide options for full payment to dentists without incurring additional fees. It removes the previous requirement that payments to noncontracting (out-of-network) dentists be equal to those for contracting (in-network) dentists.
