AB 371 (Haney, D-San Francisco) Details
Passed the Assembly Health Committee on April 22. To be heard in the Assembly Appropriations Committee.
AB 371 would implement additional network adequacy standards — including time and distance standards and requirements — for specified plans and insurers that cover dental services. The plans and insurers would be required to offer dental appointments subject to the regulatory geographic accessibility standards of the Department of Managed Health Care (DMHC) or the Department of Insurance (DOI). The bill would also require that DMHC or DOI review an entire dental provider network’s adequacy.
