AZ HB2510

Requires health care providers to verify patient eligibility and enrollment status before providing nonemergency medical care under the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS), effective October 1, 2016.

Mandates that providers submit documentation of verification with each claim for reimbursement, with claims rejected if proper documentation is not provided.

Directs the state administration to implement a verification system through a competitive request for proposals process to prevent fraud at the point of service.

Requires the verification system to be operational by October 1, 2016, enabling physicians and health care providers to accurately confirm patient eligibility and current enrollment status before delivering care.
