An Act To Prohibit Health Care Entities Providing Dental Plans From Requiring Dentists To Charge Fees For Uncovered Services

LD 1800 prohibits insurance companies and health plan administrators from requiring dentists and other dental professionals to charge specific fees for dental services not covered by a patient's insurance plan. The bill stops these entities from setting or approving fees for uncovered services, ensuring dental providers can determine their own pricing for such care. It applies to insurers, health care service contractors, health maintenance organizations, and third-party administrators managing dental plans. The law also requires that fees for covered services must be set in good faith and not nominal.
