Illinois HB2371 codifies the existing right to assign dental insurance claims to healthcare providers.
Illinois HB2371 amends the Illinois Insurance Code to acknowledge and codify the existing right of assignment of interests under accident and health insurance policies. This includes dental insurance policies. The bill ensures that if an enrollee or insured assigns a claim to a health care professional, health care facility, dental care provider, or dental care facility, payment shall be made directly to the assignee. The assignment is valid regardless of when it is made, provided it complies with the terms of the policy. This Act takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
