Doctors get retroactive insurance payments
Once an Arkansas health insurer approves a doctor's credentials, it must treat the doctor as participating for payment purposes retroactively. Payments for covered care date back to when the insurer received the doctor's credential information. That information must come from the Arkansas State Medical Board's Centralized Credentials Verification Service. Arkansas Medicaid is excluded. The law creates no direct payment or new obligation for patients.
