Clean claims must be paid within 14 days if submitted electronically and 30 days if submitted otherwise. The bill defines "clean claim" as one with no defects or improprieties. Health carriers must notify providers of any deficiencies in claims within 10 days of receiving them. Failure to pay clean claims on time results in interest payments.
