AI Summary
This bill amends several Wisconsin statutes to require health care coverage plans, including self-insured plans, to comply with a new provision allowing insureds to assign their right to receive reimbursement for dental care and related services directly to the provider. The bill also specifies that if the insured has assigned their benefits, the insurer must directly pay the provider the amount of the claim under the same criteria and payment schedule as they would have reimbursed the insured. The bill provides for initial applicability and an effective date.
