Journal of the House - 21st Day - Wednesday, March 13, 2019 - Top of Page 1016

(2) include specific information as to the steps that were and will be taken to address network inadequacy, and for steps that will be taken prospectively to address network inadequacy, the time frame within which those steps will be taken.

(b) Using the guidelines and standards established under section 62K.10, subdivision 5, paragraph (b), the commissioner shall review each waiver request and shall approve a waiver only if:

(1) the standards for approval established by the commissioner are satisfied; and

(2) the steps that were and will be taken to address the network inadequacy and the time frame for implementing these steps satisfy the standards established by the commissioner.

(c) A waiver shall automatically expire after four years and cannot be renewed. Upon or prior to expiration of a waiver, a health maintenance organization unable to meet the requirements in subdivision 1 or 2 must submit a new waiver application under paragraph (a) and must also submit evidence of steps the organization took to address the network inadequacy. When the commissioner reviews a waiver application for a network adequacy requirement which has been waived for the organization for the most recent four-year period, the commissioner shall also examine the steps the organization took during that four-year period to address network inadequacy, and shall only approve a subsequent waiver application if it satisfies the requirements in paragraph (b), demonstrates that the organization took the steps it proposed to address network inadequacy, and explains why the organization continues to be unable to satisfy the requirements in subdivision 1 or 2.

(d) Application fees collected under this subdivision shall be deposited in the state government special revenue fund in the state treasury.

In determining the level of an administrative penalty, the commissioner shall consider the following factors:

Reasonable notice in writing to the health maintenance organization shall be given of the intent to levy the penalty and the reasons therefor, and the health maintenance organization may have 15 days within which to file a written request for an administrative hearing and review of the commissioner of health's determination. Such administrative hearing shall be subject to judicial review pursuant to chapter 14. If an administrative penalty is levied, the commissioner must divide 50 percent of the amount among any enrollees affected by the violation, unless the commissioner certifies in writing that the division and distribution to enrollees would be too administratively complex or that the number of enrollees affected by the penalty would result in a distribution of less than $50 per enrollee.

This paragraph does not apply if the health carrier is able to verify that the health carrier's website displayed the correct provider network status on the health carrier's website at the time the service was provided.

The commissioner shall investigate all complaints received under this subdivision.

Subd. 2. Commissioner investigations of provider networks. The commissioner shall establish a program to examine health carrier and preferred provider organization compliance with the requirements in section 62K.10, subdivisions 2, 3, and 4. Under this program, department employees or contractors shall seek to make appointments with a range of provider types in a carrier's or organization's designated provider network to determine whether covered services are available to enrollees without unreasonable delay, and shall examine whether the carrier's or organization's network complies with the maximum distance or travel time requirements for specific provider types. The commissioner shall develop a schedule to ensure that all health carriers and preferred provider organizations are periodically examined under this program, and shall also use this program to investigate enrollee complaints filed under subdivision 1.
