Price Transparency & No Surprises Act Webinar

Presented by Barbara Johnson, BSN, RN, Senior Revenue Consultant, Para, CorroHealth Company

Handout 1    Handout 2

With the intent to empower patients and increase competition, the Price Transparency requirements went into effect on January 1, 2021. One year later, the No Surprises Act (NSA) added more regulations to protect patients. Simply put, the NSA protects patients from surprise medical bills that come from unknowingly receiving care from out-of-network care providers and emergency services. It also took Price Transparency to a new level by requiring providers to present a good faith estimate to uninsured or self-pay patients since January 2022 and soon issuing estimates to health plans which will use the estimate to provide an advanced Explanation of Benefits to their enrollees. Many providers still have unanswered questions about how Price Transparency and NSA affect their practice—and the steps they must take to comply with them. This presentation will attempt to answer many of those questions as we discuss how Price Transparency and NSA have evolved and where they are projected to go.

No Surprises Act (11/15/22)

Presented by Barbara Johnson, Senior Revenue Cycle Consultant, ParaRev

On Dec. 27, 2020, the No Surprises Act (NSA) was signed into law as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021. The NSA protects patients from surprise medical bills that come from unknowingly receiving care from out-of-network care providers. It also takes Price Transparency to a new level by requiring providers to present a good faith estimate to uninsured or self-pay patients. The NSA has been in effect for several months, yet many providers still have unanswered questions about what its interim final rules mean and the steps they must take to comply with them.
