- Consumers: Platforms must provide objective, bookable provider listings and cannot steer users, target new users, or offer improper inducements.
- Information service providers: Web-based bookable directories could receive payments if they disclose financial ties, set compensation in writing, and keep payments at fair market value based on specified services.
- Providers and suppliers: Health providers could pay to participate without anti-kickback risk if payments are not tied to the value of services payable by Federal health care programs.
- Definitions and oversight: The bill defines "consumer", "information service", and "information service provider" and allows the Secretary to set additional conditions.

New rules for online provider directories
This bill would create a safe harbor so providers and suppliers could pay web-based, bookable directories under strict terms. Payments would need written contracts at fair market value and could not depend on federal program business. Platforms would have to disclose financial ties, use objective consumer-first criteria, and allow any provider that meets clear rules to join. Platforms could not steer based on payment, give medical advice or promises, share consumer contact info except to the provider a consumer chose, arrange rides or other perks for federal program patients, or target people who have not engaged or who opted out. The Secretary of Health and Human Services could add more conditions.
