The Insurers Doctors Bill
New bill stops insurers from auditing doctors after care
Relative to prohibiting insurance companies from conducting an audit of providers services after services have been delivered but before payment has been made to such provider.
Good for everyday people ·
If passed, insurers could not audit a doctor’s work after a patient gets care but before they pay, so doctors get paid faster and patients aren’t left with surprise bills.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
This bill protects patients and doctors by forcing insurers to pay on time and banning retroactive audits, but insurers may raise premiums to cover the new costs, so voters should watch for price changes.
