HB 1473 (Truly Agreed) Allows enrollees to obtain managed care documents via the Internet & exempts certain policies from health benefit plan
Current Bill Summary
- Prepared by Senate Research -

SCS/HB 1473 - This act allows any managed care entity to provide documents and materials to an enrollee via the entity's Internet site, instead of in printed form, upon securing a waiver from the enrollee. The enrollee may revoke the waiver at any time or annually. This act clarifies the definition of "health benefit plan" as that term is used in the laws governing insurance, stating that the term does not include workers' compensation or liability insurance policies.

This act is identical to SB 1004 (2002).
