AI Summary

  • Providers treating motor vehicle accident injuries within 72 hours are conclusively presumed to accept assignment of no-fault benefits, unless fraud or deception by the claimant is proven.

  • Providers who bill non-no-fault insurers must return fees and seek payment from the no-fault insurer instead upon presentation of proof of applicable coverage.

  • The time limit for providers to present invoices to insurers is measured from the first date an invoice is presented to any insurer.

  • Compensation providers paying for emergency treatment have a direct action right against the liable no-fault insurer for reimbursement, capped at amounts per state-promulgated fee schedules.

  • No-fault insurers cannot exclude reimbursement for first-party benefits already paid by other compensation providers.

Legislative Description

Requires that insurers providing no-fault coverage reimburse other insurers for the payment of claims to providers which should have been covered by a no-fault insurer.
