Enacts provisions relating to payment for health care services

HB 3152 requires hospitals with off-campus outpatient clinics (located more than 250 yards from the main campus) to use a separate unique health provider ID (NPI) for billing those locations. It directly affects hospitals, health insurers, and patients receiving care at these off-campus sites by mandating separate billing to prevent incorrect charges. The key provision requires all claims for services at these clinics to use the dedicated NPI on standard billing forms, starting after December 31, 2026. Violations can result in fines up to $1,000 per incident, license penalties, or liability for patients if hospitals improperly bill them.
