Bill
AB 511
AB 511 clarifies that either the insured or the treating provider may be reimbursed for covered health services and adds assignment-of-benefits rules for nonprofit/HMO plans.
Chapter 308 (enacted June 6, 2025)
AB 511 clarifies and updates Nevada law governing who is entitled to reimbursement for certain health care services covered by insurance. The bill explicitly provides that, depending on the circumstance, either (a) the insured or (b) the provider who delivered the covered treatment may be entitled to reimbursement. It also adds assignment‑of‑benefits language for types of nonprofit and HMO coverage that previously lacked it.
AB 511 formalizes that providers (when applicable) can be entitled to payment for covered services and clarifies assignment rights in nonprofit and HMO contexts. It does not expand scope of practice or mandate coverage beyond existing policy terms; rather it clarifies who may receive reimbursement and ensures insured protections remain intact. Stakeholders (providers, insurers, consumer advocates) may need to update billing, claims and assignment procedures to reflect the revised statutory language.
