AI Summary
This bill amends various chapters of the Massachusetts General Laws to prohibit health insurance providers from denying or seeking to recoup reimbursement to healthcare providers due to a patient's failure to complete a Coordination of Benefits (COB) form, questionnaire, phone survey, or other insurance form. The bill aims to ensure that patients are not penalized for not providing additional insurance information, and that providers are still reimbursed for their services.
