SB404

Louisiana SB404 regulates eye care providers, ensuring fair practices and transparency in agreements with insurers and vision benefit managers.

Louisiana SB404, known as the "Louisiana Vision Plan Transparency and Fair Practice Act," aims to protect patient access to eye care services and materials. It mandates insurers and vision benefit managers to provide transparent information, including provider agreements and fee schedules, on their websites and in all relevant documents. The bill prohibits insurers from using extrapolation in audits, restricts marketing practices, and establishes a private right of action for eye care providers adversely affected by violations.
