 3 (42) (A) Every policy which provides hospital, surgical, medical or
 4 major medical coverage shall provide coverage for medically necessary
 5 services from a chosen provider for a confirmed diagnosis that is deemed
 6 to be a rare disease, life-threatening condition or disease, degenera-
 7 tive and disabling condition, or involves a medically fragile child,
 8 with no restriction to a plan network, if the following conditions are
 9 met:
 10 (i) (A) The costs of the chosen provider are equal to or less than the
 11 average cost that would have otherwise been paid to a local network
 12 provider who possesses a similar subspecialty as such chosen provider;
 13 and
 14 (B) the patient's treating specialist or primary care provider
 15 provides a written statement to recommend the chosen provider for the
