Except as otherwise provided in this section, the department may require a plan that offers a point-of-service plan or open plan to include in any managed health care plan it offers an option for a point-of-service plan or open plan to the extent that the department determines that the open plan option is financially sound.
B. No health care insurer may be required to offer a point-of-service plan or open plan as an option under a medicaid-funded managed health care plan unless the human services department has established such a requirement as part of a procurement for managed health care under the medicaid program.
