2017 by then-Commissioner of Securities and Insurance, Matt Rosendale. Since then, eight DPC clinics have opened in Montana.

“Authorizing direct patient care was a key part of my success providing more affordable health care options for Montanans as insurance commissioner,” U.S. Rep. Matt Rosendale, R-Mont., said. “I’m glad to see the governor and legislature make this bill a law to make DPC available to more Montanans.”

Commissioner of Securities and Insurance Troy Downing added, “Senate Bill 101 is common-sense legislation for Montana consumers. Adding this tool to the toolbox will expand choices for Montanans across the state. Thank you to Senator Smith for sponsoring this bipartisan bill, and thank you Gov. Gianforte for signing it into law.”

Gianforte made increasing access to affordable, high-quality health care a priority in his Montana Comeback Plan.
