TO AMEND THE HEALTHCARE CONTRACTING SIMPLIFICATION ACT.

HB 1426 amends the Healthcare Contracting Simplification Act to clarify rules governing healthcare contracts between insurers and providers. It prohibits enforcing hidden "all-products clauses" (rules requiring providers to accept all insurer products) even if not explicitly stated in contracts. The bill also requires insurers to give providers the right to opt out of network transfers during sales/leases and to disclose specific contact information (name, address, phone, email) for customer service. These changes directly affect healthcare insurers, providers, and third-party administrators managing health benefit plans.
