Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding contracts with providers of dental services.

This Legislation will clarify current language in Idaho Code that a dental plan contracting with a dentist cannot set the rate for a procedure that is not covered by that contract. The proposed bill further defines that covered services are services that a dental contracting with a dentist is liable for paying either in part or in whole. The bill will apply to any dental plan contract which is issued after December 31, 2018. Existing contracts will be brought into compliance on the next anniversary date, renewal date, or the expiration date of the applicable contract.
