Requires health care providers to verify and disclose their in- or out-of-network status with a prospective patient's health plan.

The bill mandates that health care providers verify their network participation status with a patient's health plan before providing services. Providers must disclose whether they are in-network or out-of-network and provide documentation of this verification to the patient. If the provider is out-of-network, the documentation must state that services will be billed at out-of-network rates, potentially resulting in higher out-of-pocket costs for the patient. The patient must acknowledge this documentation before receiving service.
