SB367,1,2
1
An Act
to create
632.872 of the statutes;
relating to:
virtual credit card
2
payments in health insurance policies.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under this bill, an insurer that offers a health insurance policy may not require a health care provider to accept payments under the health insurance policy via virtual credit card payment. The bill requires an insurer to inform a health care provider of the fees associated with any available payment methods and how to select a payment method other than virtual credit card payments before providing a payment via virtual credit card payment. The bill defines “virtual credit card payment” as an electronic funds transfer in which an insurer issues a single-use series of numbers that are associated with a payment, are chargeable to a predetermined dollar amount, and expire upon payment processing.
Additionally, under the bill, if an insurer transmits a payment to a health care provider in accordance with certain federal standards for transmitting electronic funds, the insurer may not charge a fee solely for the transmission, unless the provider has consented to the fee.
Health insurance policies are referred to in the bill as disability insurance policies.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
