MS SB2224

Authorizes the Mississippi Commissioner of Insurance to adopt rules and regulations to examine and address inequalities or irregularities in provider reimbursement rates paid by insurers, subcontractors, third-party administrators, or other payors for covered services in the state

Allows insurers to present evidence justifying any inequality or irregularity in reimbursement rates, with non-compliance penalties up to $10,000 per violation

Requires insurers, upon request, to provide a written list of information and documentation needed to deem a claim "clean," and binds the insurer to that list

Clarifies that claims submitted by providers more than 30 days after "completion of service" (rather than date of service) do not qualify as clean claims

Includes a sunset provision repealing the new reimbursement rate examination authority on July 1, 2027
