Abstract:
The No Surprises Act adds a new Part E of title XXVII of the PHS Act establishing requirements applicable to health care providers, and facilities. Specifically, the No Surprises Act adds provisions at new PHS Act sections 2799B-6 and 2799B-7, which require providers and facilities to provide a good faith estimate of the total expected charges to uninsured individuals, under certain circumstances, upon their request, for scheduled items and services, and allow uninsured individuals to avail themselves to a patient-provider dispute resolution process if their billed charges after receiving such items or services is substantially in excess of the expected charges listed in the good faith estimate furnished by the provider ot facility. PHS Act section 2799B-6 (2)(A) requires a health care provider or facility to provide a notification of the good faith estimate of expected charges to a plan or issuer in the case the individual is enrolled in such a plan or coverage and is seeking to have a claim for such item or services submitted to such plan or coverage. The good faith estimate of expected charges from the health care provider or facility will inform the advanced explanation of benefits that must be provided by the plan or issuer, as required by PHS Act section 2799A-1(f), in the case the individual is enrolled in such a plan or coverage and is seeking to have a claim for such item or services submitted to such plan or coverage.
