What’s happening: Multiple bills addressing insurer accountability have been introduced in the California State Assembly during the current legislative session. On behalf of its member hospitals, CHA is supporting several bills that would improve the prior authorization process by reducing response times, clarifying reviewer qualifications, and/or reducing or eliminating prior authorization for certain services.
What else to know: CHA is also supporting bills that would require greater plan transparency for review, approval, and appeal results.
