Modifies provisions relating to information health carriers are required to provide to enrollees
HB 626 requires health insurance companies in Missouri to provide enrollees (health insurance members) with specific cost information upon request. It mandates that insurers disclose: (1) the exact out-of-pocket costs (like deductibles and copays) for a specific service from an in-network provider, and (2) the dollar amounts they will pay for that service if delivered by an in-network or out-of-network provider. This information must be accessible online and through alternative methods for those without internet access. The bill does not apply to supplemental insurance policies like Medicare supplements or short-term health plans.
