33-40-102. (Temporary) State action immunity doctrine. The state action immunity doctrine applies to the patient-centered medical home program in Montana, and federal or state antitrust laws that prohibit collusion do not apply to any standards used by the patient-centered medical home program regarding medical payments. The legislative findings, as provided in 33-40-101, and oversight by the insurance commissioner combine to determine that patient-centered medical homes are in the public interest and are likely to result in the delivery of more efficient and effective health care services sufficient to override concerns about collusion regarding medical payments among insurers, other health plans, or primary care practices.
