Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Health Care Services Lien Act. Provides that the total of all liens under the Act, including insurer reimbursement claims, (instead of all liens under the Act) shall not exceed 40% of a verdict, judgment, or settlement. Provides that a petition by an injured person or a health care provider to adjudicate the rights including liens of all interested parties may be served on interested parties by personal service, substitute service, or registered or certified mail. Provides that the Act applies to all insurers and their reimbursement claims and rights. Provides that if a patient provides his or her health insurance information to a health care professional or health care provider, the professional or provider is required to submit health care charges to the identified insurer and that the failure to do so voids the professional's or provider's lien and bars any collection action directly against the injured person. Limits the professional's or provider's lien to 66% of the charges that would have been submitted had the charge been presented to the insurer. Makes related changes.
