The primary bill
sponsor, Representative Brown, introduced Senate Bill 25-010 to the House
Health and Human Services Committee. The bill specifies that insurance
documents can be handled electronically under the rules of the "Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act." The bill places additional requirements
on the electronic communication consent process for insurance documents,
including requiring that carriers obtain informed consent from recipients;
carriers communicate specific information to recipients prior to consent;
carriers obtain separate consent to post certain documents publically;
and employers who contract with insurance carriers on behalf of their employees
consent only if they use electronic communications in the course of business.
The commissioner of the Division of Insurance in the Department of Regulatory
Agencies must adopt rules to implement these provisions by January 1, 2026. |
