Operative words

Emergency regulation to amend NAC 687B. As COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the world, it is essential that the Nevada community take preventive measures to stop the spread of the virus in Nevada. The Division of Insurance ('Division') has determined that testing for COVID-19 may create a situation where Nevadans put off seeking medical services... Additionally, the Division believes having health insurers share useful information about benefits and options for medical services would help consumers and providers. Finally, the Division seeks to ensure Nevadans are able to continue getting their needed prescriptions at their normal costs despite disruptions to supplies in prescriptions.

Enforcement

Division of Insurance under NRS Title 57
