Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill prohibits certain actions based on the influenza vaccination status of a health care provider. The bill prohibits a health care provider or health care system from refusing to affiliate with another health care provider or from denying to a health care provider the ability to join a provider network or health care system based on the influenza vaccination status of an individual health care provider or based on the percentage of employees of a health care provider who are vaccinated against influenza. Under the bill, a defined network plan, preferred provider plan, or limited services health organization may not exclude a provider from being a participating provider with that plan or organization and an insurer, in offering a network plan, may not refuse to contract to be part of the provider network with a provider based on the influenza vaccination status of an individual provider or based on the percentage of employees of a provider who are vaccinated against influenza.
