House Bill 70 Delay NC HealthConnex to Certain Providers

House Bill 70 Delay NC HealthConnex for Certain Providers Passes Senate!

We have some good news to share.  On May 29, the North Carolina Senate voted 48 to 0 in support of HB 70, Delay NC HealthConnex for Certain Providers.  The version of the bill adopted by the Senate still provides for voluntary connection for certain providers, including occupational therapists.  Because the Senate version differs in some sections from the version adopted by the House, the bill now goes back to the House for concurrence.  If the House concurs with the Senate version, the bill will then move to the Governor’s office for signature.  We will continue to update NCOTA members on the progress of HB 70.  Thank you to our members for your advocacy efforts in support of HB 70.  Click here to see the latest version of HB 70 adopted by the Senate.
