Bill Summary

To require written notice of medical tests outside a patient's network for insurance purposes

AI Summary

This bill would require physicians or physician practice managers to provide written notice to patients when they order tests, procedures, or lab work that will be conducted by a facility outside the patient's insurance network. This is intended to inform patients about the potential for higher out-of-pocket costs associated with out-of-network services, so they can make informed decisions about their healthcare.
