Insurance, Health, Accident - As introduced, increases, from 60 to 65 days prior to the effective date of the change, the required minimum notice that a health insurance entity must provide to a healthcare provider of any material change made in the sole discretion of the insurance entity to the entity's previously released provider manual or a reimbursement rule and policy. - Amends TCA Title 56, Chapter 7.
SB 2550 would require health insurance companies in Tennessee to give healthcare providers 65 days' notice before making significant changes to their provider manuals or reimbursement policies, up from the current 60-day requirement. This change directly affects health insurance entities and the healthcare providers who rely on timely updates to billing and service agreements. The bill, pending before the Senate Commerce and Labor Committee, amends Tennessee law to extend the notice period without altering other insurance practices.
