The legislature finds and declares that:
I. Current and prospective beneficiaries, and enrollees and subscribers of group and individual health policies and hospital service plans, nonprofit health service plans, medical service plans, and health maintenance organizations do not always understand the medical services that will and will not be covered by such third-party payors, or the payment schedule contained in such policies or plans.
II. Third-party payors should be required to provide such information regarding covered services in clear and simple terms with an easily understandable schedule of payment for services covered to current and potential beneficiaries, enrollees and subscribers.
