Bill Summary
A bill for an act relating to insurance; changing definition of covered services for dental care; amending Minnesota Statutes 2022, section 62Q.78, subdivision 6.
AI Summary
This bill amends the definition of "covered services" in Minnesota's insurance laws related to dental care. Specifically, it clarifies that "covered services" refers to dental care services that are reimbursed in whole or in part under a dental provider agreement, rather than services for which reimbursement is available under an enrollee's plan contract. The bill also explicitly allows dental plans, organizations, or third-party administrators to impose certain limitations on covered services, such as balance billing, waiting periods, frequency limitations, deductibles, and maximum annual benefits.
