Bill Summary
Relative to patient co-payment rates for care provided by physician assistants and nurse practitioners. Health Care Financing.
AI Summary
This bill aims to mitigate the co-payment rates charged to patients for care provided by physician assistants (PAs) and nurse practitioners (NPs). Specifically, it requires that the co-payment rate for care provided exclusively by a PA or NP be adjusted to be proportional to the co-payment rate for care provided by a physician, as defined in the relevant laws. This seeks to address any potential discrepancy in co-payment rates between these different types of healthcare providers.
