Overview
This bill requires New Jersey’s Medicaid program and health insurance network contracts to give healthcare providers at least six months’ advance notice of any policy changes that could lead to coverage denials. The goal is to provide providers with sufficient time to adjust their practices and inform their patients about potential changes to their healthcare benefits. This legislation strengthens protections for healthcare providers by ensuring they are aware of potential coverage issues before they impact patient care. It applies to contracts with the State Medicaid program, FamilyCare Health Coverage Program, and various insurance carriers operating in the state.
