AB 1629 (Haney, D-San Francisco) Details

Placed on the Assembly Appropriations Committee suspense file on April 8. The suspense file will be heard on May 14.

AB 1629 would require a health plan or insurer to accept a patient’s written assignment of benefits for out-of-network services, enabling them to pay a non-contracting dental provider directly for covered services. The Department of Managed Health Care and Department of Insurance would also be required to review the adequacy of dental provider networks.
