Establishes the "Honest Billing Act" to ensure proper billing for health care services at off-campus outpatient departments.
The "Honest Billing Act" mandates that off-campus outpatient departments of facilities must use a unique National Provider Identifier (NPI) for billing health care services. This requirement applies to all facilities licensed and operating in Missouri and health carriers doing business in the state. The act imposes penalties for non-compliance, including fines and potential license suspension. The Department of Health and Senior Services can enforce these penalties, and the Attorney General can investigate violations.
