Hospital liens, to limit

SB 210, titled "Hospital liens, to limit," primarily defines what constitutes a "clean electronic claim" and a "clean written claim" in health care billing. These definitions specify that a clean claim must include all necessary data for accurate processing, without requiring additional information from the health care provider or a third party. The bill clarifies that health care payors, including insurers and government programs, cannot demand data beyond standard forms for an initial claim to be considered clean. These standardized definitions replace previous language regarding "accurate and properly coded claims" in the context of claim submission and payment timelines.
