Bill overview
This bill requires health care service plans and health insurers in California to use a non-fee-based payment method as the default when paying dental providers. Dental providers can opt into fee-based payment arrangements, but only with the provider’s affirmative consent, and they can change their preference at any time. The plan or insurer must provide clear information about the fee-based payment method and the provider’s right to opt out. This legislation aims to ensure transparency and control for dental providers regarding payment arrangements.
