No Surprises Act
The issue has implications for members who bill for any number of services or procedures.
MSOS along with AAOS has advocated for a fair implementation of the No Surprises Act (2020) through the rulemaking process. This Part II Interim Final Rule lays out the process for Independent Dispute Resolution, including the role of the insurer-formulated qualifying payment amount in arbitration. Additionally, the rule determines a process for self-pay and uninsured patients to obtain good faith estimates for the cost of care and a patient-provider dispute resolution process.
