An Act for health care non-discrimination

This bill amends Massachusetts health care laws to regulate how insurance companies set up alternative payment arrangements with providers. It requires carriers to base these payment models on patient population factors like age and health needs rather than on the specific prices or past spending of individual providers. The law also mandates that carriers report data on these arrangements to a state center to ensure compliance and defines alternative payment arrangements as contracts where payment is tied to projected medical expenses for a group of people.
