Minnesota SF3297 allows health insurers to provide explanations of benefits electronically to patients.

Minnesota SF3297 amends the state's statutes to allow health insurers to provide explanations of benefits electronically to patients. This bill specifies that group purchasers must offer patients the choice to receive their explanation of benefits either in paper, electronic, or both formats. Insurers must provide clear instructions for patients to make their choice, and those who do not respond will receive a paper version. The electronic version must use the same data elements and definitions as the paper version.
