Required provisions in contract between participating provider of health care and health carrier.


Each contract entered into for the purposes of a network plan between a participating provider of health care and the health carrier must include, without limitation, a provision which is substantially similar to the following:
[Text not available]
Provider of health care agrees that in no event, including but not limited to, nonpayment by the health carrier or intermediary, insolvency of the health carrier or intermediary or breach of this agreement, shall the provider of health care bill, charge, collect a deposit from, seek compensation, remuneration or reimbursement from, or have any recourse against, a covered person or a person (other than the health carrier or intermediary) acting on behalf of the covered person for health care services provided pursuant to this agreement. This agreement does not prohibit the provider of health care from collecting coinsurance, deductibles or copayments, as specifically provided in the evidence of coverage, or fees for uncovered services delivered on a fee-for-service basis to covered persons. This agreement does not prohibit a provider of health care (except for a provider of health care who is employed full-time on the staff of the health carrier and has agreed to provide health care services exclusively to the health carrier’s covered persons and no others) and a covered person from agreeing to continue health care services solely at the expense of the covered person, as long as the provider of health care has clearly informed the covered person that the health carrier may not cover or continue to cover a specific health care service or health care services. Except as provided herein, this agreement does not prohibit the provider of health care from pursuing any available legal remedy.
