SB 119 – Delaware

Status: In Process
Year Introduced: 2021
Link: https://legis.delaware.gov/BillDetail?LegislationId=68627

This Act is a result of the 2019 report of the Joint Legislative Oversight and Sunset Committee’s task force under Senate Resolution No. 9 of the 150th General Assembly, which recommended requiring dental insurers to report to the Delaware Health Care Claims Database (“Database”). When the Database was created in 2016, providers of dental insurance were exempted from the mandatory reporting requirements. Dental care, however, remains an important indicator of overall health, and claims information related to dental care will help the Database continue to provide value to the State and researchers to help advance the Triple Aim Plus One, the State’s goal of better health, improved health care quality and patient experience, lower growth in per capita health care costs, and an enhanced provider experience.
