The bill was introduced by Sen. Heather Sanborn. It would require dental insurers to spend 80 percent of their revenue on claims and quality improvements versus administrative costs. 

Massachusetts is reviewing a similar proposal requiring insurers to spend at least 83 percent of revenues on dental expenses and quality improvements instead of administrative costs.
