The bill tasks the statewide health care review interim committee
with studying health-care billing practices across the state during the 2025 interim to:
•
Deduce whether patients across the state are receiving timely billing for health-care services, and if not, determine why; and
•
Consider potential legislative changes to ensure that patients across the state are guaranteed timely billing for health-care services.
The committee may meet up to 4 times during the 2025 interim to
complete this study and must, within 90 days after their final meeting, submit to the legislative committees with jurisdiction over health matters a report that contains:
•
A brief recap of the committee's meetings;
•
The committee's findings; and
•
Recommendations, if any, regarding legislative measures that may be taken to improve health-care billing practices to ensure that patients receive timely billing for health-care services.
