Federal No Surprises Act
Today’s topic is the Federal No Surprises Act.
The Federal No Surprises Act is intended to protect consumers from unexpected medical bills that occur when a patient unknowingly receives medical services from physicians and other providers who are outside of their health insurance network; in other words, healthcare providers who are not “in network”.
The law protects consumers specifically from surprise medical bills in three main scenarios:
1. Emergency care from an Out-of-Network provider at an In-Network facility;
2. Any care from an undisclosed Out-of-Network provider; and
3. Uninsured or self-pay patients from unknown costs.
