Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 24, December 25, 2024
Section 3 CCR 702-4-2-17-3 - Applicability

The provisions of this regulation shall apply to all health coverage plans, including, but not limited to, dental insurance policies. It does not apply to long-term care insurance policies as the requirements for the appeals process for that type of health coverage plan is covered under a separate regulation. This regulation shall not apply to automobile medical payment policies, worker's compensation policies, or property and casualty insurance. Where a decision concerning a claim is not based on utilization review, a carrier is not required to use the specific procedures outlined in this regulation. However, this regulation shall apply to a carrier's denial of a benefit because the treatment is excluded by the health coverage plan if the covered person presents evidence from a medical professional that there is a reasonable medical basis that the contractual exclusion does not apply. Nothing in this regulation shall be construed to supplant any appeal or due process rights that a person may have under federal or state law.

Solely with respect to the requirements in sections 7.F.2. and 8.F.2., this regulation does not apply to a health maintenance organization which provides a majority of covered professional services through a single contracted medical group or to a nonprofit health maintenance organization operated by or under the control of the Denver Health and Hospital Authority created by Article 29 of Title 25 or any of its subsidiaries.
