AN ACT PROHIBITING HEALTH CARRIERS FROM USING PREMIUMS TO ENGAGE IN LOBBYING ACTIVITIES.
HB 6139 prohibits health insurance companies (health carriers) from using customer premiums to lobby government officials about health insurance regulations. It directly affects health insurance providers by banning the use of funds paid by policyholders for lobbying activities. The bill amends state law to explicitly forbid health carriers from directing premium payments toward influencing legislation or regulations related to the health insurance industry. This policy change aims to prevent insurance companies from using consumer payments to sway government decisions on their sector.
