State laws on hospital lengths of stay for childbirth

[alexa]

We are in process of rewriting our Health Plan SPD for the new SPD rules among other things

1 of the numerous requirements is to include state laws on hospital lengths of stay for childbirth in addition to the federal NMHPA disclosure.

We have employees in 50 states.

Does anyone have a good state-by-state summary of this or can point me in direction of where I can obtain?

Thanks

UHC should be able to provide this to you. Isn't that your major carrier?

No, we are self insured & only use them for claims

I am concerned about the HMO's we have in 18 states

If it means contacting each of them can do; was just wondering if there were a central list available rather than having to do that

You may be self-insured, but they pay the claims, which follows state guidelines. As far as I know, UHC is located in all 50 states. All you have to do is call them up and ask them and they will provide you with anything you are looking for.
