What’s in it

People with this type of insurance will only have to pay the costs required by their specific policy. This rule applies to dialysis services provided starting in 2022.1

Read the official explanation

This bill relates to health insurance provided under an Iowa comprehensive health insurance association policy. The bill requires a provider of dialysis services to accept as payment in full from the association, for the provision of health care services to an insured, an amount equal to the amount that Medicare pays a provider of dialysis services for provision of the same health care services. An insured is only responsible for any cost sharing imposed on the insured by the insured’s association policy. This applies to health care services provided by a provider of dialysis services to an insured on or after January 1, 2022.
