Faster provider reviews and earlier in-network coverage
The law takes effect 60 days after passage and sets deadlines for New Hampshire health carriers to finish provider credentialing. After receiving a clean and complete application, carriers have 30 calendar days for primary care physicians and mental health providers, and 45 days for specialists. Applications must be signed, dated, and include all required information. Any answers raising concerns about care quality or clinical skills must include explanations satisfactory to the carrier. While credentialing is pending, carriers must cover covered services at in-network terms retroactively to the date the provider submitted the application.
