An Act ensuring transparency in the practice of dental leased networks

This bill requires dental network companies (Provider Network Entities) to clearly disclose to dentists which insurance plans (Third-party Health Plans) they are connected to and the specific payment rates for each plan. It mandates written agreements listing all insurance plans, fee schedules, and administrative policies at the time of contracting. Insurance companies must also inform patients in plain language that they are using a leased dental network and provide annual reports on network usage. The law directly affects dentists who join these networks and patients receiving dental coverage under insurance plans that use leased networks.
