After a network adequacy standards waiver is granted by the commissioner, an insurer may refer to the provisions prohibiting balance billing under Sections 1301.0053, 1301.155, 1301.164, or 1301.165, as applicable, in an access plan submitted to the department for the sole purpose of explaining how the insurer will coordinate care to limit the likelihood of a balance bill for services subject to those provisions and not to justify a departure from network adequacy standards.
