What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a health care provider is prohibited from reducing or

eliminating, or offering to reduce or eliminate, coinsurance or a deductible of an

individual covered under a health insurance policy that is required under the terms

of the policy, unless paying the amount would be an undue financial hardship to the

individual. This bill eliminates that prohibition.
