Bill > LD270

This bill authorizes the final adoption of portions of Chapter 850: Health Plan Accountability, which is a major substantive rule developed by the Department of Professional and Financial Regulation's Bureau of Insurance. The rule has been provisionally adopted and submitted to the Legislature for review under Maine's administrative rulemaking process (specifically Title 5, chapter 375, subchapter 2-A). By resolving to authorize the final adoption of these rule portions, the Legislature is approving regulatory changes related to health plan oversight. The bill includes an emergency clause, which means it will take effect immediately upon approval, allowing the regulatory changes to be implemented quickly. While the specific details of the rule changes are not provided in the bill text, such rules typically involve standards, requirements, or procedures for health insurance plans operating within the state.
