S. C. R. 55 - “Respectfully urging the current
presidential administration to open federal lease sales onshore and offshore;
supporting critical energy infrastructure to safely deliver energy produced in
West Virginia; and ensuring American energy companies can access the capital
they need to hire American workers.”
Whereas, All West Virginia residents deserve access
to affordable and reliable energy, whether electricity, natural gas, or
transportation fuels, and
Whereas, West Virginians are currently dealing with
the highest inflation in over 40 years, with energy costs rising 29 percent,
and gasoline surging 50 percent, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics; and
Whereas, The current administration is pursuing a
policy placing the United States at the mercy of the Organization of Petroleum
Exporting Countries and Russia to meet our domestic needs, harming our national
and economic security; and
Whereas, Foreign oil imports from Russia surged more
than 20 percent providing over $16 billion to Russia in 2021, according to the
U.S. Energy Information Agency; and
Whereas, The current administration has frozen
federal lease sales for American energy resources onshore and offshore while
cancelling critical energy infrastructure projects like the KeystoneXL pipeline
which would have reduced our dependence on Russian oil imports; and
Whereas, The current administration is actively
litigating against its obligations to issue lease sales on federal lands and
waters required under federal law; and
Whereas, The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has
continually delayed important decisions on permits for pipelines across the
country and has recently issued new harmful policy statements that could
further delay and impede critical domestic energy infrastructure from being
developed, depriving West Virginia access to energy markets outside of our
state; and
Whereas, The Securities and Exchange Commission is
designing rules to discourage investment in domestic oil and natural gas
companies which may further impede production and opportunities for West
Virginians; and
Whereas, The Environmental Protection Agency has not
issued a decision on West Virginia’s application for Class VI primacy that
would allow West Virginia to safely utilize long-term storage in conjunction
with state energy development; therefore, be it

in order to encourage the maximum recovery of oil and gas from all productive
formations in this state, it is not in the public interest, with the exception
of shallow wells utilized in a secondary recovery program, to enact statutory
provisions relating to the exploration for or production from of
oil and gas from vertical shallow wells, as defined in section two of
this article but that it is in the public interest to enact statutory
provisions establishing regulatory procedures and principles to be applied to

tract or tracts in which the horizontal well is drilled or completed, and the
corresponding authorization to drill and produce oil and gas from that area as
a unit, notwithstanding the lack of adequate consensual rights allowing pooling
or unitization of oil and gas or allowing drilling horizontally across tract
lines. When a horizontal well unit is formed, that portion of the production

(f) Horizontal well unit orders. —
(1) A horizontal well unit order under this
section shall specify:
(A) The size and boundaries of the horizontal well
unit giving due regard for maximization of the amount of oil and gas produced
to prevent waste and protect correlative rights: Provided, That
a horizontal well unit’s size may not exceed 640 acres: Provided,
however, That the commission may exceed the acreage limitation if the
applicant demonstrates that the proposed horizontal well unit area would be
drained efficiently and economically by a larger horizontal well unit: Provided

(3) An order shall specify that the allocation of
the percentage of production of the horizontal wells drilled in the horizontal
well unit to the separately owned tracts, or portions of the tracts, included
within the horizontal well unit shall be in the proportion that each tract’s
net acreage within the horizontal well unit bears to the total net acreage
within the horizontal well unit.
(4) A horizontal well unit order shall authorize
and perfect unitization of all interests in the target formation as to the
tracts, or portions of the tracts, included in the horizontal well unit.
(5) If the applicant is a person that controls the
horizontal well unit proposed for a horizontal well unit order under this
section, the commission shall form a horizontal well unit pursuant to this
section and authorize the drilling and operation of one or more horizontal
wells in the unit for the production of oil or gas from the target formation
from any tract within the horizontal well unit.
(6) With respect to royalty owners of leased
tracts who have not consented to pooling or unitization, the commission shall
require that unitization consideration be paid to executive interest royalty
owners in an amount equal to 25 percent of the weighted average monetary bonus
amount on a net mineral acre basis and a production royalty percentage equal to
80 percent of the weighted average production royalty percentage rounded to the
nearest one tenth of one percent paid to other executive interest owners of
leased tracts in the unit in the same target formation: Provided, That
the weighted average calculation shall not include any fixed amounts paid to
royalty owners or payments made on any basis other than a net mineral acre
basis. Further, the royalty percentage cannot be less than the production
royalty percentage in the existing lease or twelve and one-half percent for a
flat rate lease. The applicant, all royalty owners, and owners of leasehold,
working interest, overriding royalty interest and other interests in the oil
and gas are bound by the order and the remaining lease terms, including other
terms related to the payment of royalties. Unitization consideration shall be
paid by the participating operators, including the applicant, to the extent of
their interest in the horizontal well unit.
(7) With respect to interests in oil and gas as to
which there is no lease in existence:
(A) Executive interest owners may elect to
surrender the oil and gas underlying the tract to the participating operators,
including the applicant, to the extent of their interest in the horizontal well
unit for consideration, which if not agreed upon, shall be an amount equal to
the weighted average amount paid, per net mineral acre, by the applicant to
executive interest owners in bona fide, third-party transactions for the
acquisition of the oil and gas mineral estate in the same target formation
underlying the horizontal well unit: Provided, That the weighted average
calculation shall not include any fixed amounts paid to royalty owners or
payments made on any basis other than a net mineral acre basis; or
(B) Executive interest owners may make an election
for unitization consideration, and if the executive interest owner elects
unitization consideration, the interests of the executive interest owner and
the associated nonexecutive interest owners shall be considered leased to the
participating operators, including the applicant, to the extent of their
interest in the horizontal well unit on terms which, if not agreed upon, shall
consist of the following:
(i) A bonus payment per net mineral acre equal to
the weighted average monetary bonus paid, per net mineral acre, to executive
interest owners by the applicant in connection with other leases in the same
target formation controlled by the applicant within the horizontal well unit: Provided,
That the weighted average calculation shall not include any fixed amounts paid
as bonus payments to executive interest owners or payments made on any basis
other than a net mineral acre basis; and
(ii) A production royalty for the natural gas, oil
and natural gas liquids produced and sold equal to the highest production
royalty percentage in connection with other leases in the same target formation
controlled by the applicant within the horizontal well unit and dated within
the twenty four months preceding the application date. Executive interest
owners may make a one-time election prior to the issuance of a horizontal well
unit order by the commission to be paid production royalties for natural gas
based on either: (a) An index price in effect at the beginning of each calendar
month, as published in an independent, third-party publication reflecting arm’s-length,
market-based sales, for natural gas applicable to the first interstate pipeline
into which the natural gas is delivered, and shall not be reduced by
post-production expenses; or (b) the weighted average sales price.
Production royalties for natural gas liquids will
be calculated using the sum of the proceeds received at the tailgate of
the processing facility for each natural gas liquid product during each month
divided by the volume of such natural gas liquid product that was sold during
such month and shall not be reduced by post-production expenses. If an
executive interest owner does not make the one-time election regarding the
price on which royalties for natural gas shall be paid prior to the issuance of
a horizontal well unit order by the commission, the applicant shall determine
whether it will pay royalties to the executive interest owner and the
associated nonexecutive interest owners based on either the index price
described in this subparagraph or the weighted average sales price, and such
determination shall be binding on the applicant, operators, executive interest
owners and the associated nonexecutive interest owners for the term of the
lease. The applicant and all royalty owners and owners of leasehold,
working interest, overriding royalty interest and other interests in the
associated unleased oil and gas shall be bound by the order. Nothing contained in
paragraph (B) applies to any lease in this state now in existence or entered
into in the future, or to any award of unitization consideration made by the
commission other than unitization consideration awarded to an executive
interest owner of an unleased tract who elects to be considered leased pursuant
to this paragraph; or
(C) Executive interest owners may make an election
to participate in a horizontal well unit consistent with §22C-9-7a(f)(9) and
§22C-9-7a(f)(10) of this code.
(D) Owners of oil and gas interests as to which
there is no lease in existence who do not elect (A), (B) or (C) of this
subdivision shall be considered to have made an election to receive unitization
consideration and lease their interest in the oil and gas mineral estate in the
target formation to the applicant pursuant to §22C-9-7a(f)(7)(B) of this code.
(8) No unitization consideration may be required
to be paid to any royalty owner who has consented or agreed to pooling or
unitization by virtue of the terms contained in an oil and gas lease, or other
agreement which permits pooling or unitization.
(9) An operator may elect to consent to and
participate in a horizontal well unit after an application is filed. Subject to
subdivision (7) of this subsection, when the commission issues a horizontal
well unit order pursuant to this section, the commission shall consider each
nonconsenting operator, who does not elect to participate in the risk and cost
of drilling in the horizontal well unit through a voluntary agreement with the applicant,
to participate in the drilling in the horizontal well unit on a carried basis
on terms and conditions which, if not agreed upon, shall be consistent with the
terms and conditions contained in the proposed joint operating agreement
submitted by the applicant in accordance with §22C-9-7a(d)(1)(M) of this code: Provided,
That the commission determines that the proposed terms and conditions of
the joint operating agreement are consistent with terms typically found in
other similarly situated, arm’s-length joint operating agreements within the
horizontal well unit that were entered into by the applicant for the same
target formation prior to the filing of the application for the horizontal well
unit.
(10) If a nonconsenting operator participates in
the drilling in the horizontal well unit on a carried basis under the
horizontal well unit order and an owner of any operating interest in any
portion of the horizontal well unit drills and operates, or pays the costs of
drilling, completing, equipping and operating a horizontal well for the benefit
of a nonconsenting operator as provided in the horizontal well unit order, then
the operating owner is entitled to the share of production from the tracts or
portions thereof subject to the horizontal well unit order accruing to the
interest of the nonconsenting operator, exclusive of any unitization
consideration, and royalty and overriding royalty reserved in any leases,
assignments thereof or agreements relating thereto, of the tracts or portions
of the tracts, until the net revenue from the nonconsenting operator’s
share of the production, exclusive of the unitization consideration, royalty
and overriding royalty, equals double the share of the costs payable by or
charged to the interest of the nonconsenting operator, as set forth in the
accounting procedures included within the joint operating agreement submitted
by the applicant in accordance with §22C-9-7a(d)(1)(M) of this code.
(11) If all wells proposed in a horizontal well
unit approved by the commission are not drilled and completed as approved in
the horizontal well unit order, the applicant shall file a request to modify
the horizontal well unit with the commission within 60 days from the later of:
Completion of all drilling activities within the horizontal well unit; or the
date that is five years after the most recent drilling activity in the
horizontal well unit occurs.
(12) Any interested party may file an application
to correct a clerical error in a horizontal well unit order at any time.
(13) The applicant may file a request to modify a
horizontal well unit order at any time.
(14) If an operator has not drilled and completed
a well in a horizontal well unit formed by the commission within three years
after the latter of either the drilling and completion of the initial
horizontal well in the horizontal well unit or the drilling and completion of
the most recent horizontal well within the horizontal well unit, as the case
may be, an interested party may file a request to modify the horizontal well
unit, and the commission may modify the horizontal well unit. Upon the
modification of the horizontal well unit, the commission shall recalculate the
allocation of production from the tracts in the modified horizontal well unit
from and after the modification order date and the modification order shall be
binding on the property subject to the horizontal well unit order, and all
owners thereof, their heirs, representatives, successors and assigns for so
long as the horizontal well unit order remains in effect. Following the entry
of a modified horizontal well unit order containing the commission’s
recalculation of the allocation of production from the tracts in the modified
horizontal well unit order, the applicant and all other operators shall have no
liability whatsoever to pay royalty in any manner other than that set forth in
the modified horizontal well unit order.
(15) All operations, including, but not limited
to, the commencement, drilling, or operation of a horizontal well upon any
portion of a horizontal well unit for which a unit order has been entered
pursuant to this section, shall be considered for all purposes the conduct of
the operations upon each separate tract or portion of the tract in the
horizontal well unit. That portion of the production allocated to each tract or
portion of the tract included in a horizontal well unit shall, when produced,
be considered for all purposes to have been actually produced from the tract by
an oil and gas well drilled, completed, and producing on the tract.
(16) Subject to the provisions of subsection (o)
of this section, where the commission finds that the interest of one or more
unknown and unlocatable interest owners are included in the horizontal well
unit, the horizontal well unit operator shall deposit the moneys payable to
unknown
and
unlocatable interest owners into an escrow account bearing a market rate of
interest to be held, administered and disbursed in accordance with an order of
the commission and this section.
(17) A horizontal well unit order under this
section shall expire if a horizontal well has not been drilled in the
horizontal well unit within three years of the date the order is final and is
nonappealable, unless the commission extends the order for good cause, and if a
well has been drilled within three years the horizontal well unit shall
continue in force and effect until the last producing horizontal well in the
horizontal well unit is no longer capable of producing oil and gas.
(18) So long as the order remains in effect, a
horizontal well unit order shall be binding on the property subject to the
horizontal well order and all owners of the property and their heirs,
representatives, successors, and assigns.
(g) Notice, timelines, hearings, and orders.

unit applications filed before the effective date of this section shall
continue to proceed under and be governed by the provisions of section seven of
this article. With respect to horizontal well unit applications filed after the
effective date of this section, if this section conflicts with section seven of
this article, the provisions of this section shall prevail. When considering an
application pursuant to this section, rules regarding deep wells promulgated
before the effective date of this section shall not apply.
(n) Unknown and unlocatable interest owners. —
Notwithstanding the existence of unknown and unlocatable interest owners, a
horizontal well unit order may be entered and development, drilling and
production may occur in the horizontal well unit. Unknown and unlocatable
interest owners of oil and gas in place not subject to lease shall be
considered to have made an election to receive unitization consideration and
lease their interest in the oil and gas mineral estate in the target formation
to the applicant pursuant to §22C-9-7a(f)(7)(B) of this code. Unknown and
unlocatable interest owners of working interest in property subject to lease
before an application for a horizontal well unit is filed pursuant to this
section shall be considered to have elected to participate in the drilling in
the horizontal well unit on a carried basis pursuant to §22C-9-7a(f)(9) and
§22c-9-7a(f)(10) of this code.
(o) Opportunity of surface owners to acquire
interests of unknown and unlocatable interest owners in oil and gas underlying
horizontal well unit. —
(1) When the interests of unknown and unlocatable
interest owners’ property is included in a horizontal well unit, if the
applicant has not filed a proceeding pursuant to §55-12A-1 et seq. of
this code (entitled Lease and Conveyance of Mineral Interests Owned by Missing
or Unknown Owners or Abandoning Owners) with respect to the interest of an
unknown and unlocatable interest owner in the horizontal well unit, and taxes
on the unknown and unlocatable interest owners’ property are not delinquent,
then, after a horizontal well unit order is entered by the commission, the
applicant shall inform the parties paying taxes on the surface overlying that
portion of the oil and gas included in the horizontal well unit that the
surface owner(s) (TSO) may acquire the underlying interest of the unknown and
unlocatable interest owners in the horizontal well unit in a proceeding
pursuant to this subsection and that information about the interest may be
obtained from the applicant. Upon written request to the applicant by any TSO,
the applicant shall, to the extent practicable under the circumstances, furnish
the requesting TSO the following information: Provided, That
applicant is not required to provide confidential, trade secret, attorney
client communications or attorney work product:
(A) An identification of the last known owner, and
information in the possession of the applicant regarding the last known
identity and address of, the interest believed to be held by unknown and
unlocatable interest owners,
(B) The efforts to locate unknown and unlocatable
interest owners,
(C) Such other information known to the applicant
which might be helpful in identifying or locating the present owners thereof,
(D) A copy of the most recent recorded instrument
embracing the interest of the unknown and unlocatable interest owners as
necessary to show the vesting of title to the minerals in the last record owner
of the title to the minerals.
(E) The acreage of the tract and the net acreage
of the unknown or unlocatable mineral owner or owners in the tract.
(F) The amount of money at any point to which the
surface owners would be entitled upon written request.
(2) When an unknown and unlocatable interest in
oil and gas is included in a horizontal well unit an owner of the surface
overlying the interest may file a verified petition with respect to all the
interests of unknown and unlocatable interest owners included in a horizontal
well unit and underlying the surface owner’s property. The circuit court in
which the majority of the property subject to the petition authorized by this
subsection is located has jurisdiction of the proceeding. The petition shall
refer to this subsection and identify the oil and gas property subject to the
petition. The prayer in any such petition shall be for the court to order, in
the case of any defendant or heir, successor or assign of any defendant who
does not appear to claim ownership of the defendant’s interest for five years
after the date the unit order is filed, a conveyance of the defendants’ oil and
gas mineral interest under this subsection, subject to the horizontal well unit
order and lease terms approved by the commission, to the petitioners.
(3) In any proceeding authorized in this
subsection the circuit court in which the petition is filed shall consider the
property subject to the petition leased to the participating operators in the
horizontal well unit on the terms determined by the commission.
(4) The person filing a petition under this
subsection shall join as defendants to the action all unknown and unlocatable
interest owners having record title to the particular oil and gas minerals
subject to the petition, and the unknown heirs, successors and assigns of all
such owners not known to be alive. All persons not in being who might have some
contingent or future interest therein, and all persons whether in being or not
in being, having any interest, present, future or contingent, in the mineral
interests subject to the petition, shall be fully bound by the proceedings
under this subsection.
(5) Any other owner of an overlying surface tract shall
be joined as a petitioner in the proceeding. Any other person purporting to be
the unknown and unlocatable interest owner, or any heir, successor or assign of
an unknown and unlocatable interest owner, may appear as a matter of right at
any time prior to the entry of judgment confirming the deed authorized by this
subsection, for the purpose of establishing his or her title to a mineral
interest subject to the petition. If the appearing unknown and unlocatable
interest owner’s claim is established to the satisfaction of the court, the
court shall dismiss the action as to the appearing owner’s interest without
cost, fees or damages: Provided, That if the appearance of the
formerly unknown and unlocatable interest owner was as a result of the filing
of the petition by the surface owner pursuant to this subsection, then the
court may order the petitioner’s reasonable proportionate attorneys’ fees and
costs to be paid to the petitioner out of the amounts payable to the formerly
unknown and unlocatable interest owner.
(6) The court may appoint a special commissioner
at any time to deliver a deed to the petitioners in the form provided herein
five years after first production reported to the state occurs or one year
after the first publication service of a petition under this subsection is
made, whichever is later. The special commissioner shall be an attorney duly
admitted to practice before the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals and in
good standing, but may not be required to give bond. If the petitioners do not
agree as to the interest each is to acquire by the deed contemplated herein, or
the division of any moneys associated therewith, the court shall equitably
determine the interests of the petitioners.
(7) In any action under this subsection, if personal
service of process is possible, it shall be made as provided by the West
Virginia Rules of Civil Procedure. In addition, immediately upon the filing of
the petition, the petitioner shall: (1) Publish a Class II legal advertisement
in compliance with the provisions of §59-3-1 et seq. of this code, and
in the county wherein any part of the oil and gas mineral estate described in
the petition lies and any immediately adjacent counties; and (2) no later than
the first day of publication, file a lis pendens notice in the county clerk’s
office of the county where the petition is filed and the county wherein the
larger part of the oil and gas mineral estate described in the petition lies.
Both the advertisement and the lis pendens notice shall set forth: (1) The
names of the petitioner and the defendants, as they are known to be by the
exercise of reasonable diligence by the petitioner, and their last known
addresses; (2) the date and record data of the instrument or other conveyance
which immediately created the oil and gas mineral interest; (3) an adequate
description of the land as contained therein; (4) the source of title of the
last known owners of the oil and gas mineral interests; and (5) a statement
that the action is brought for the purpose of authorizing payments from a
horizontal well unit, and thereafter, in the case of any defendant or heir,
successor or assign of any defendant who does not appear to claim ownership of
the defendant’s interest within five years after the date of the court ordering
a conveyance of the defendant’s oil and gas mineral interest under this
subsection, subject to the lease terms determined by the commission and
horizontal well unit order, to the owners of the surface overlying the oil and
gas mineral interest. In addition, the petitioner shall send notice by
certified mail, return receipt requested, to the last known address, if there
is one, of all named defendants. In addition, the court may order advertisement
elsewhere or by additional means if there is reason to believe that additional
advertisement might result in identifying and locating the unknown and
unlocatable interest owners.
(8) Upon a finding by the court of the present
ownership of the petitioners of the surface estate, the court shall order the
special commissioner to convey to the proven surface owners, subject to the
horizontal well unit order and lease terms approved by the commission, the
mineral interest specified in the petition authorized herein, by a deed
substantially in the form as follows:
This deed, made the _____day of _________________,

Witness the following signature.
_________________________________
Special Commissioner
(9) Prior to the delivery of the special
commissioner’s deed, no deed from owners of the surface to another party shall
sever any benefits from this subsection from ownership of the surface. A deed
doing so is void and unenforceable.
(10) After the date of the special commissioner’s
deed authorized herein, the surface owner grantee is entitled to receive all
proceeds due and payable under a horizontal well unit order attributable to the
mineral interests specified in the special commissioner’s deed accruing before
and after the date of the special commissioner’s deed.
(11) The applicant may not be joined as a party,
but shall be served with copies of all pleadings and other papers filed in the
proceeding, and may intervene at any time. A surface owner must provide a copy
of the recorded Special Commissioner deed to the applicant and any other
necessary information reasonably requested by the applicant before the
applicant or any other operator has an obligation to provide payment to the
surface owner.
(12) Payment by the applicant shall relieve the
participating operators of all liability whatsoever that the participating
operators may have had to any unknown and unlocatable interest owners, their
heirs, successors and assigns with respect to the payment and all operations in
the horizontal well unit, all operations therein and all production from the
operations.
(13) If a surface owner does not file a petition
pursuant to this subsection within six years of the date notice is given to a
TSO as provided herein, amounts payable with respect to the unknown and
unlocatable interest owners’ interests included in a horizontal well unit shall
be paid to the Oil and Gas Reclamation Fund established pursuant to §22-6-29 of
this code, and the payment shall relieve the participating operators of all
liability of the participating operators with respect to the horizontal well
unit and all operations therein and production therefrom to any unknown and unlocatable
interest owners, their heirs, successors and assigns and to any owners of
surface overlying the unknown and unlocatable interest owners’ interest, their
heirs, successors and assigns, with respect to the payment.
(14) After the recording of the special
commissioner’s deed, no action may be brought by any unknown and unlocatable
interest owner or any heir, successor or assign thereof either to recover any
past or future proceeds accrued or to be accrued from the property subject to
the deed, or to recover any right, title or interest in and to the mineral
interest subject to the deed.
(15) If any unknown and unlocatable interest owner
or heir, successor or assign thereof appears in the proceeding in circuit
court, the unknown and unlocatable interest owner, if he or she establishes his
or her claim to the satisfaction of the circuit court, shall only be entitled
to receive amounts payable in connection with the horizontal well unit or
production therefrom after the date of appearance in the proceeding. Further,
the participating operators and the petitioning surface owners shall have no
liability to the unknown and unlocatable interest owner or their heirs,
successors or assigns for any amount paid with respect to the unknown and
unlocatable interest or the horizontal well unit or production therefrom paid
in accordance with this subsection.
(p) If any part of this section is adjudged to be
unconstitutional or invalid, the invalidation shall not affect the validity of
the remaining parts of this section; and to this end, the provisions of this
section are hereby declared to be severable.”
Delegate Zukoff moved to amend the amendment on page 5, section
2, lines 90 through 92, by striking out the definition of “Just and equitable
share of production” in its entirety and inserting a new definition to read as
follows:
“Just and equitable share of production”
means, as to each person, an amount of oil or gas or both substantially equal
to the amount of recoverable oil and gas in that part of a pool underlying the
person’s tract or tracts.”
On the adoption of the amendment to the amendment,
the yeas and nays were demanded, which demand was sustained.

on Government and Finance study the effect of Kenney v. Liston, 233 W.
Va. 620 (2014). “
Whereas, in Syl. Pt. 7, Kenney v. Liston, 233
W. Va. 620 (2014), the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals held that, where
an injured person’s health care provider agrees to reduce, discount or write
off a portion of the person’s medical bill, the person may recover the entire
reasonable value of the medical services necessarily required by the injury,
and the tortfeasor is not entitled to receive the benefit of the reduced,
discounted, or written-off amount: therefore, be it
Resolved by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That the Joint Committee on the Judiciary is hereby
requested to study the effect of Kenney v. Liston, 233 W. Va. 620
(2014); and, be it
Further Resolved, That the Joint Committee on

A message from the Senate, by
The Clerk of the Senate, announced the adoption by
the Senate and requested the concurrence of the House of Delegates in the
adoption of the following concurrent resolution, which was read by its title
and referred to the Committee on Rules as follows:
S. C. R. 57 - “Requesting the West Virginia
Insurance Commission study coverage options and costs for the coverage of medically
necessary dental procedures that result from cancer related dental and oral
health procedures.”
Whereas, Approximately 50,000 Americans are diagnosed
with oral cancer every year based upon reports of the Oral Cancer Foundation;
and
Whereas, Half of the diagnosed individuals survive
for five years or longer; and
Whereas, Since people might not have regular oral
cancer screenings, this cancer is often detected late and at a more dangerous
stage; and
Whereas, In order to improve patient outcomes, the
West Virginia Insurance Commission is directed to study coverage options and
costs if provided by insurance plans covered under §33-1-1 et seq. W.
Va. Code for the coverage of medically necessary dental procedures to include
the following: Evaluations, examinations, patient education, laboratory
assessments, medications, treatments, restoration, rehabilitation, medical
devices, and prosthesis needed to obtain cancer treatment or restore whole or
partial function associated with eating, breathing, voice, speech, and
swallowing related to a cancer diagnosis; and
Whereas, The West Virginia Insurance Commission is
directed to study coverage options and costs if provided by insurance plans
covered under §33-1-1 et seq. W. Va. Code for the coverage of medically
necessary oral health procedures to include the following: Surgery,
chemotherapy, biotherapy, pharmacology, immunotherapy, or radiation related to
a cancer diagnosis; therefore be it
Resolved by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That the West Virginia Insurance Commission study
coverage options and costs for the coverage of medically necessary dental
procedures that result from cancer related dental and oral health procedures;
and, be it
Further Resolved, That the West Virginia Insurance
Commission shall report to the Legislative Oversight Commission on Health and
Human Resources Accountability on July 1, 2023.
In the absence of objection, the House of Delegates returned to
the Third Order of Business for the purpose of receiving committee reports.
