Florida H1185 amends jurisdiction rules for insurers and establishes reimbursement for emergency services by nonparticipating providers.

Florida H1185 modifies jurisdiction rules to allow courts to hear cases from insurers providing coverage in the state. It also creates provisions for reimbursement for emergency services rendered by nonparticipating health care providers. These providers can pursue a cause of action for quantum meruit to recover the reasonable value of emergency services from a patient's insurer. The bill defines "emergency services" and "health care providers," and it specifies that the remedies provided are cumulative and not exclusive.
