Idaho H0929 establishes provisions for out-of-pocket payments for health care services.

Idaho H0929 amends existing law to establish provisions regarding certain out-of-pocket payments for health care services. It allows covered persons to pay the discounted cash price for health care services directly to the provider. Health carriers must accept this payment in full and cannot bill the covered person or the health carrier for any balance. The amount paid out of pocket is attributed to the in-network or out-of-network deductible and annual maximum out-of-pocket expense. The bill also outlines exceptions for certain types of insurance plans.
