This bill aims to prevent health carriers from setting payment or reimbursement rates based on the licensure of participating advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs). Specifically, it amends existing managed care law by adding a new subparagraph that prohibits health carriers from establishing their payment or reimbursement structures solely on the APRN's licensure status.

The bill introduces a new subparagraph (f) to RSA 420-J:8, VIII, which mandates that health carriers cannot discriminate in their payment or reimbursement policies based solely on an APRN's licensure. The act is approved on July 26, 2024, and is set to take effect on January 1, 2025. There are no deletions indicated in the provided text of the bill.
