HB1918

HB1918 excludes intergovernmental joint self-insurance pools from the definition of "health care plan" under the Managed Care Reform and Patient.

HB1918 amends the Managed Care Reform and Patient Rights Act by modifying the definition of "health care plan." Specifically, it excludes any intergovernmental joint self-insurance pool providing health benefits under the Intergovernmental Cooperation Act from being considered a health care plan. This change affects how such pools are regulated and what services they must provide under the Act. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
