California SB1049 extends the deadline for submitting corrected health care claims.

California SB1049 amends the Administrative Procedure Act to allow the State Department of Health Care Services to issue necessary guidance and regulations. It mandates that health care service plans and health insurers provide claimants with at least 90 days to submit corrected claims if a claim is denied or overpayment is noticed due to a defect that can be remedied. These plans and insurers cannot deny corrected claims submitted within this period on the grounds of late submission.
