Subscriber rates subject to approval of department; provisions in contract between corporation and dentist.
(a) The rates charged by a dental service plan corporation to the subscribers for dental services shall at all times be subject to the approval of the department.
(b) Every contract between a dental service plan corporation and a dentist, whereby the plan provides for payment of a fee or fees to the dentist for dental services rendered by the dentist to subscribers, shall contain a clause stating that the dental service plan corporation shall be liable for such fee or fees rather than the subscribers receiving said dental services.
