AI Summary

  • Prohibits four types of clauses in health insurance provider network contracts: all-or-nothing clauses (requiring inclusion of all provider members or affiliate contracts), anti-steering clauses (restricting encouragement of enrollees to use competitor providers), gag clauses (restricting disclosure of pricing and quality information), and most favored nation clauses (restricting rate negotiations with other entities)

  • Providers cannot offer, enter into, amend, or renew contracts containing these prohibited clause types with general contracting entities

  • Any all-or-nothing, anti-steering, gag, or most favored nation clause in a provider network contract is void and unenforceable, while remaining contract provisions stay in effect

  • General contracting entities that encourage enrollees to obtain care from particular providers have a fiduciary duty to act only for the primary benefit of the enrollee
