Primary Care Reform Collaborative

Senate Bill 227 is an act to amend Title 16, 18 and 29 of the Delaware Code relating to primary care services. The Act promotes the use of primary care services by creating a Primary Care Reform Collaborative under the Delaware Health Care Commission. This Act requires all health insurance providers to participate in the Delaware Health Care Claims Database and requires individual, group and State employee insurance plans to reimburse primary care physicians, certified nurse practitioners, physician assistants and front-line practitioners for chronic care management and primary care at no less than the physician Medicare rate for the next three (3) years.

Senate Substitute 1 for Senate Bill 116 expands the membership of the Primary Care Reform Collaborative and creates an Office of Value-Based Health Care Delivery in the Department of Insurance to reduce health care costs by increasing the availability of high quality, cost-efficient health insurance products that have stable, predictable, and affordable rates. The Office of Value-Based Health Care Delivery will work with the Primary Care Reform Collaborative and the State benchmarking process.
