P.L. 1983, Chapters 142 through 145, require that each employer or other organization subject thereto offer its employees or members the option of selecting alternate coverage which permits covered persons to obtain dental services from any dentist of their choice whenever the employer is contributing to a dental plan contract (as described in 11:10-2.2(a) ) . These statutes also direct the Commissioner to promulgate rules and regulations to effectuate their purposes. This subchapter is being promulgated to meet this statutory mandate and to implement the notification requirements of the statutes.
