Bill overview
This bill updates Nevada law regarding how health insurance claims are paid.

The bill also establishes clear timelines for requesting additional information, prohibiting unjustified denials, and mandates annual reporting to the Insurance Commissioner. It extends penalties for non-compliance to fraternal benefit societies, dental care issuers, and managed care organizations, and includes provisions for notice of claim denials within 21 or 30 days depending on submission method.
