Official description
Supervised billing; Medicaid and health insurance plans. Requires the Department of Medical Assistance Services to permit a qualified licensed provider to bill for clinical services provided by a qualified non-licensed provider under the supervision of the qualified licensed provider and requires health insurance carriers to provide coverage for mental health services or substance use services provided by a qualified non-licensed provider under the supervision of a qualified licensed provider when such services would be covered if provided by a qualified licensed provider. Additionally, the bill reduces the time limit for a retroactive denial by a health insurance carrier from 12 months to 180 days.
