HF 637 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to the recovery of overpayment of a claim by a dental carrier.

HF 637 establishes rules for dental carriers to recover overpayments made to dental providers. It requires carriers to provide written notice of overpayments within 365 days of payment, including details of the error, and to create clear appeal processes allowing providers 90 days to dispute recovery attempts. Carriers may recover overpayments by withholding or reducing future payments, but must give providers written notice within 28 days of the action, detailing the original overpayment and affected payment. The bill prohibits carriers from bypassing these rules through contracts, ensuring providers have formal processes to challenge disputed overpayments.
