Maddy summaryHB 219 requires Ohio health insurers to maintain networks ensuring all plan members - especially low-income individuals, children, people with disabilities, and those with chronic conditions - can access needed care without unreasonable travel or delays. Insurers must provide sufficient providers by specialty (including those serving underserved communities), guarantee 24/7 emergency services, and meet specific geographic accessibility standards. The state insurance superintendent will set evaluation criteria (like provider-to-patient ratios and appointment wait times) and monitor compliance through surveys, with insurers required to file network plans for approval. This law directly affects health insurers operating in Ohio, mandating concrete network standards to improve access to care.

Maddy summaryHB 111 amends Ohio's speed limit law to impose an additional fine on drivers who exceed the speed limit by 30 miles per hour or more. This change directly affects drivers convicted of high-speed violations, adding a supplemental penalty to existing fines. The bill modifies Section 4511.21 of the Revised Code to specify this extra charge without altering existing speed limits or zone definitions. It does not change current speed restrictions (like 20 mph in school zones) but adds a financial consequence for the most severe speeding offenses. The bill is currently in the introduction phase, having been referred to committee on February 26, 2025.
Maddy summaryHB 99 removes specific nonprofit agricultural membership organizations from Ohio's insurance regulations. It defines these organizations as state-incorporated entities serving farmers' interests and providing healthcare coverage exclusively to members and their families. The bill clarifies that such healthcare coverage is not considered "insurance" under state law, exempting these organizations from Title XXXIX regulations and the superintendent of insurance's jurisdiction. This allows the organizations to provide healthcare benefits without insurance licensing while permitting reinsuring of related risks through authorized insurers.
