(a) The attorney general shall adopt regulations that establish the amount and manner of payment of a registration fee for authorized third parties. The attorney general shall establish the fee level so that the total amount of fees collected from authorized third parties approximately equals the actual regulatory costs for the oversight of joint negotiations between physicians and health benefit plans. The attorney general shall annually review the fee level to determine whether the regulatory costs are approximately equal to fee collections. If the review indicates that the fee collections and regulatory costs are not approximately equal, the attorney general shall calculate fee adjustments and adopt regulations under this subsection to implement the adjustments. In January of each year, the attorney general shall report on the fee level and revisions for the previous year under this subsection to the office of management and budget.
(b) In this section, “regulatory costs” means costs of the Department of Law that are attributable to oversight of joint negotiations between physicians and health benefit plans.
