Bill Summary

AN ACT Amending section 32-1213, Arizona Revised Statutes; relating to the state board of dental examiners.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing Arizona law to prohibit dental insurers, or holding companies of dental insurers, from owning any business that offers professional dental services to the public. A "dental insurer" is defined as a company that provides dental insurance, and a "holding company" is a business that owns a significant stake (10% or more) or voting power in a dental insurer. This change aims to prevent conflicts of interest and ensure that dental practices are primarily owned and operated by licensed dental professionals, rather than by entities whose primary focus is insurance.
