Adds a new federal rule for limited‑scope vision benefit plans that shortens how long plans can lock in contracts with optometrists, stops plans from forcing optometrists to use particular labs or suppliers, and requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to annually notify States about enforcement. The measure also says that if a State does not respond within 90 days the Secretary will treat that State as not substantially enforcing, while preserving any State law that directly regulates vision benefit plans.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
