Any health care provider licensed by the Department of Insurance is under their jurisdiction.
Most people still have traditional health insurance coverage.
Under these plans, your insurance usually has a deductible you must pay before the insurance applies, and you are allowed to choose your doctor whose fees are reimbursed when his or her office bills the insurance company directly. These plans are regulated by the Department of Insurance which accepts and acts on consumer complaints. In many cases the Department is helpful and will intervene when you file a complaint against your insurance company. Under these plans you pay a fixed amount for all of your medical care. Unlike traditional health insurance plans, HMOs nearly always have an appeal process in the plan which you must follow when a claim is denied.
