Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a health care provider is prohibited from reducing or
eliminating, or offering to reduce or eliminate, coinsurance or a deductible of an
individual covered under a health insurance policy that is required under the terms
of the policy, unless paying the amount would be an undue financial hardship to the
individual. This bill eliminates that prohibition.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
