AI-generated summary, not yet reviewed by Better Utah staff. Please consult the bill text.
Ambulance membership organizations — companies that sell plans promising to cover or reimburse the cost of ambulance rides in exchange for a membership fee — would be regulated under a new licensing system created by this bill, separate from standard health insurance rules. These organizations would need to obtain a license from the state Insurance Commissioner, renew it periodically, file annual reports, and maintain financial safeguards such as reserve funds and a surety bond to help ensure they can pay claims. The bill would also require clear, standardized disclosures and contract terms so consumers understand these plans are not insurance, set marketing rules to prevent misleading sales practices, and prohibit selling these memberships to people enrolled in Medicaid, while also addressing what happens if a member later enrolls in Medicaid after purchasing a plan. The Commissioner would have authority to suspend or revoke an organization's license and impose penalties for violations of these new requirements.
