BILL · 2011–12 SESSION

HB 2057: State purchased health care

Limiting payments for health care services provided to low-income enrollees in state purchased health care programs.

Summary

Managed care systems serving Basic Health Plan (BHP) and Healthy Options (HO) enrollees are required to pay nonparticipating providers no more than the amount paid for the same services under Washington's Medicaid fee-for-service program.
Nonparticipating providers must accept those rates as payment in full in addition to any deductibles, coinsurance, or copayments due from the patients.
Enrollees in the BHP and HO are not liable to nonparticipating providers for covered services except for required deductibles, coinsurance, or copayments.
Attempts by nonparticipating providers to recover funds beyond the Medicaid fee-for-service rates constitute unprofessional conduct.
