Dan Feyen, Wisconsin State Senator for 20th District | Facebook
According to the Wisconsin State Legislature's official website, the bill was described as follows: "virtual credit card payments in health insurance policies".
The following is our breakdown, based on the actual bill text, and may include interpretation to clarify its provisions.
In essence, this bill prohibits insurers from requiring health care providers to accept payment through virtual credit card transactions under disability insurance policies. It mandates that insurers must inform providers about the fees associated with available payment methods and provide clear instructions on how to opt for alternatives before issuing a virtual credit card payment. Virtual credit card payments are defined as single-use electronic fund transfers with a predetermined amount. Additionally, insurers cannot charge a fee for transmitting payments unless the provider consents. These requirements cannot be waived, and any contract provisions to the contrary are void. The bill's stipulations are applicable to contracts entered, renewed, or modified from its effective date.
The bill was co-authored by Representative Clint P. Moses (Republican-92nd District), Senator Chris Larson (Democrat-7th District), Senator Steve L. Nass (Republican-11th District), Senator Jamie Wall (Democrat-30th District). It was co-sponsored by Representative David Armstrong (Republican-67th District), Representative Robert Brooks (Republican-59th District), and Representative Barbara Dittrich (Republican-99th District), along four other co-sponsors.
Dan Feyen has authored or co-authored another 91 bills since the beginning of the 2025 session, with all of them being adopted.
Feyen graduated from Fox Valley Technical College in 1988.
Feyen, a Republican, was elected to the Wisconsin State Senate in 2025 to represent the state's 20th Senate district, replacing previous state senator Duey Stroebel.
In Wisconsin, the legislative process starts when a senator, constituent, group, or agency proposes an idea for a bill. After drafting, the bill is introduced, numbered, and referred to a committee for review and public input. If approved, it moves through three readings and votes in both the Senate and Assembly. Once both chambers pass the same version, the bill goes to the governor, who can sign it, veto it, or let it become law without a signature. Only a small share of bills introduced each session ultimately become law. You can learn more about the Wisconsin legislative process here.
