Risk sharing arrangements shall be subject to the requirements of sections 62D.01 to 62D.30; (g) demonstrated that it has made provisions for and adopted a conflict of interest policy applicable to all members of the board of directors and the principal officers of the health maintenance organization. The conflict of interest policy shall include the procedures described in section 317A.255, subdivisions 1 and 2, or a substantially similar provision contained in the laws under which the health maintenance organization is incorporated or otherwise organized. However, the commissioner is not precluded from finding that a particular transaction is an unreasonable expense as described in section 62D.19 even if the directors follow the required procedures; and (h) otherwise met the requirements of sections 62D.01 to 62D.30. Sec. 6. Minnesota Statutes 2002, section 62D.05, subdivision 1, is amended to read: Subdivision 1. [AUTHORITY GRANTED.] Any nonprofit corporation or local governmental unit person may, upon obtaining a certificate of authority as required in sections 62D.01 to 62D.30, operate as a health maintenance organization. Sec. 7. Minnesota Statutes 2003 Supplement, section 62E.08, subdivision 1, is amended to read: Subdivision 1. [ESTABLISHMENT.] The association shall establish the following maximum premiums to be charged for membership in the comprehensive health insurance plan: (a) the premium for the number one qualified plan shall range from a minimum of percent to a maximum of percent of the weighted average of rates charged by those insurers and health maintenance organizations with individuals enrolled in: (1) $1,000 annual deductible individual plans of insurance in force in Minnesota; (2) individual health maintenance organization contracts of coverage with a $1,000 annual deductible which are in force in Minnesota; and (3) other plans of coverage similar to plans offered by the association based on generally accepted actuarial principles; (b) the premium for the number two qualified plan shall range from a minimum of percent to a maximum of percent of the weighted average of rates charged by those insurers and health maintenance organizations with individuals enrolled in: (1) $500 annual deductible individual plans of insurance in force in Minnesota;
13 80TH DAY] FRIDAY, MARCH 26, (2) individual health maintenance organization contracts of coverage with a $500 annual deductible which are in force in Minnesota; and (3) other plans of coverage similar to plans offered by the association based on generally accepted actuarial principles; (c) the premiums for the plans with a $2,000, $5,000, or $10,000 annual deductible shall range from a minimum of percent to a maximum of percent of the weighted average of rates charged by those insurers and health maintenance organizations with individuals enrolled in: (1) $2,000, $5,000, or $10,000 annual deductible individual plans, respectively, in force in Minnesota; and (2) individual health maintenance organization contracts of coverage with a $2,000, $5,000, or $10,000 annual deductible, respectively, which are in force in Minnesota; or (3) other plans of coverage similar to plans offered by the association based on generally accepted actuarial principles; (d) the premium for each type of Medicare supplement plan required to be offered by the association pursuant to section 62E.12 shall range from a minimum of percent to a maximum of percent of the weighted average of rates charged by those insurers and health maintenance organizations with individuals enrolled in: (1) Medicare supplement plans in force in Minnesota; (2) health maintenance organization Medicare supplement contracts of coverage which are in force in Minnesota; and (3) other plans of coverage similar to plans offered by the association based on generally accepted actuarial principles; and (e) the charge for health maintenance organization coverage shall be based on generally accepted actuarial principles. The list of insurers and health maintenance organizations whose rates are used to establish the premium for coverage offered by the association pursuant to paragraphs (a) to (d) shall be established by the commissioner on the basis of information which shall be provided to the association by all insurers and health maintenance organizations annually at the commissioner's request. This information shall include the number of individuals covered by each type of plan or contract specified in paragraphs (a) to (d) that is sold, issued, and renewed by the insurers and health maintenance organizations, including those plans or contracts available only on a renewal basis. The information shall also include the rates charged for each type of plan or contract. In establishing premiums pursuant to this section, the association shall utilize generally accepted actuarial principles, provided that the association shall not discriminate in charging premiums based upon sex. In order to compute a weighted average for each type of plan or contract specified under paragraphs (a) to (d), the association shall, using the information collected pursuant to this subdivision, list insurers and health maintenance organizations in rank order of the total number of individuals covered by each insurer or health maintenance organization. The association shall then compute a weighted average of the rates charged for coverage by all the insurers and health maintenance organizations by: (1) multiplying the numbers of individuals covered by each insurer or health maintenance organization by the rates charged for coverage;
14 5806 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE [80TH DAY (2) separately summing both the number of individuals covered by all the insurers and health maintenance organizations and all the products computed under clause (1); and (3) dividing the total of the products computed under clause (1) by the total number of individuals covered. The association may elect to use a sample of information from the insurers and health maintenance organizations for purposes of computing a weighted average. In no case, however, may a sample used by the association to compute a weighted average include information from fewer than the two insurers or health maintenance organizations highest in rank order. Sec. 8. Minnesota Statutes 2003 Supplement, section 62E.091, is amended to read: 62E.091 [APPROVAL OF STATE PLAN PREMIUMS.] The association shall submit to the commissioner any premiums it proposes to become effective for coverage under the comprehensive health insurance plan, pursuant to section 62E.08, subdivision 3. No later than 45 days before the effective date for premiums specified in section 62E.08, subdivision 3, the commissioner shall approve, modify, or reject the proposed premiums on the basis of the following criteria: (a) whether the association has complied with the provisions of section 62E.11, subdivision 11; (b) whether the association has submitted the proposed premiums in a manner which provides sufficient time for individuals covered under the comprehensive insurance plan to receive notice of any premium increase no less than 30 days prior to the effective date of the increase; (c) the degree to which the association's computations and conclusions are consistent with section 62E.08; (d) the degree to which any sample used to compute a weighted average by the association pursuant to section 62E.08 reasonably reflects circumstances existing in the private marketplace for individual coverage; (e) the degree to which a weighted average computed pursuant to section 62E.08 that uses information pertaining to individual coverage available only on a renewal basis reflects the circumstances existing in the private marketplace for individual coverage; (f) a comparison of the proposed increases with increases in the cost of medical care and increases experienced in the private marketplace for individual coverage; (g) the financial consequences to enrollees of the proposed increase; (h) the actuarially projected effect of the proposed increase upon both total enrollment in, and the nature of the risks assumed by, the comprehensive health insurance plan; (i) the relative solvency of the contributing members; and (j) other factors deemed relevant by the commissioner. In no case, however, may the commissioner approve premiums for those plans of coverage described in section 62E.08, subdivision 1, paragraphs (a) to (d), that are lower than percent or greater than percent of the weighted averages computed by the association pursuant to section 62E.08. The commissioner shall support a decision to approve, modify, or reject any premium proposed by the association with written findings and
15 80TH DAY] FRIDAY, MARCH 26, conclusions addressing each criterion specified in this section. If the commissioner does not approve, modify, or reject the premiums proposed by the association sooner than 45 days before the effective date for premiums specified in section 62E.08, subdivision 3, the premiums proposed by the association under this section become effective. Sec. 9. [62Q.37] [AUDITS CONDUCTED BY NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED INDEPENDENT ORGANIZATION.] Subdivision 1. [APPLICABILITY.] This section applies only to (i) a nonprofit health service plan corporation operating under chapter 62C; (ii) a health maintenance organization operating under chapter 62D; (iii) a community integrated service network operating under chapter 62N; and (iv) managed care organizations operating under chapter 256B, 256D, or 256L. Subd. 2. [DEFINITIONS.] For purposes of this section, the following terms have the meanings given them. (a) "Commissioner" means the commissioner of health for purposes of regulating health maintenance organizations and community integrated service networks, the commissioner of commerce for purposes of regulating nonprofit health service plan corporations, or the commissioner of human services for the purpose of contracting with managed care organizations serving persons enrolled in programs under chapter 256B, 256D, or 256L. (b) "Health plan company" means (i) a nonprofit health service plan corporation operating under chapter 62C; (ii) a health maintenance organization operating under chapter 62D; (iii) a community integrated service network operating under chapter 62N; or (iv) a managed care organization operating under chapter 256B, 256D, or 256L. (c) "Nationally recognized independent organization" means (i) an organization that sets specific national standards governing health care quality assurance processes, utilization review, provider credentialing, marketing, and other topics covered by this chapter and other chapters and audits and provides accreditation to those health plan companies that meet those standards. The American Accreditation Health Care Commission (URAC), the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), and the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) are, at a minimum, defined as nationally recognized independent organizations; and (ii) the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services for purposes of reviews or audits conducted of health plan companies under Part C of Title XVIII of the Social Security Act or under section 1876 of the Social Security Act. (d) "Performance standard" means those standards relating to quality management and improvement, access and availability of service, utilization review, provider selection, provider credentialing, marketing, member rights and responsibilities, complaints, appeals, grievance systems, enrollee information and materials, enrollment and disenrollment, subcontractual relationships and delegation, confidentiality, continuity and coordination of care, assurance of adequate capacity and services, coverage and authorization of services, practice guidelines, health information systems, and financial solvency. Subd. 3. [AUDITS.] (a) The commissioner may conduct routine audits and investigations as prescribed under the commissioner's respective state authorizing statutes. If a nationally recognized independent organization has conducted an audit of the health plan company using audit procedures that are comparable to or more stringent than the commissioner's audit procedures: (1) the commissioner may accept the independent audit and require no further audit if the results of the independent audit show that the performance standard being audited meets or exceeds state standards; (2) the commissioner may accept the independent audit and limit further auditing if the results of the independent audit show that the performance standard being audited partially meets state standards;
16 5808 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE [80TH DAY (3) the health plan company must demonstrate to the commissioner that the nationally recognized independent organization that conducted the audit is qualified and that the results of the audit demonstrate that the particular performance standard partially or fully meets state standards; and (4) if the commissioner has partially or fully accepted an independent audit of the performance standard, the commissioner may use the finding of a deficiency with regard to statutes or rules by an independent audit as the basis for a targeted audit or enforcement action. (b) If a health plan company has formally delegated activities that are required under either state law or contract to another organization that has undergone an audit by a nationally recognized independent organization, that health plan company may use the nationally recognized accrediting body's determination on its own behalf under this section. Subd. 4. [DISCLOSURE OF NATIONAL STANDARDS AND REPORTS.] The health plan company shall: (1) request that the nationally recognized independent organization provide to the commissioner a copy of the current nationally recognized independent organization's standards upon which the acceptable accreditation status has been granted; and (2) provide the commissioner a copy of the most current final audit report issued by the nationally recognized independent organization. Subd. 5. [ACCREDITATION NOT REQUIRED.] Nothing in this section requires a health plan company to seek an acceptable accreditation status from a nationally recognized independent organization. Subd. 6. [CONTINUED AUTHORITY.] Nothing in this section precludes the commissioner from conducting audits and investigations or requesting data as granted under the commissioner's respective state authorizing statutes. Subd. 7. [HUMAN SERVICES.] The commissioner of human services shall implement this section in a manner that is consistent with applicable federal laws and regulations. Subd. 8. [CONFIDENTIALITY.] Any documents provided to the commissioner related to the audit report that may be accepted under this section are private data on individuals pursuant to chapter 13 and may only be released as permitted under section 60A.03, subdivision 9.

[ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION OF REQUIRED INFORMATION.] A health carrier, as defined in section 62A.011, subdivision 2, is not in violation of this chapter for electronically transmitting or electronically making available information otherwise required to be delivered in writing under chapters 62A to 62Q and 72A to an enrollee as defined in section 62Q.01, subdivision 2a, and with the requirements of those chapters if the following conditions are met: (1) the health carrier informs the enrollee that electronic transmission or access is available and, at the discretion of the health carrier, the enrollee is given one of the following options: (i) electronic transmission or access will occur only if the enrollee affirmatively requests to the health carrier that the required information be electronically transmitted or available and a record of that request is retained by the health carrier; or
17 80TH DAY] FRIDAY, MARCH 26, (ii) electronic transmission or access will automatically occur if the enrollee has not opted out of that manner of transmission by request to the health carrier and requested that the information be provided in writing. If the enrollee opts out of electronic transmission, a record of that request must be retained by the health carrier; (2) the enrollee is allowed to withdraw the request at any time; (3) if the information transmitted electronically contains individually identifiable data, it must be transmitted to a secured mailbox. If the information made available electronically contains individually identifiable data, it must be made available at a password-protected secured Web site; (4) the enrollee is provided a customer service number on the enrollee's member card that may be called to request a written copy of the document; and (5) the electronic transmission or electronic availability meets all other requirements of this chapter including, but not limited to, size of the typeface and any required time frames for distribution.
