Know Your Provider Act of 2020

This bill requires private health insurance plans to

• establish publicly available databases listing the contact information for providers and facilities delivering services under the plan,
• periodically verify and update the information on such databases,
• include notice in other provider directories that the most current information is available through the database, and
• establish procedures for responding promptly to inquiries from plan holders.

Further, providers and facilities must establish processes for submitting current information to contracted health plans.
