On September 30, 2021, the federal government issued Part 2 of its No Surprise Billing Rule, which builds on the balance billing limits imposed by Part 1 (which we discussed during our August 19 webinar, "No Surprise Billing Rule: What Providers Need to Know"). Unless modified, the new rule will require providers to do the following by January 1, 2022:
- Determine whether patients are insured at the time of scheduling appointments.
- Send a good faith estimate of anticipated charges promptly after scheduling or on request if the patient is uninsured.
- Include in the good faith estimate required information, including estimates from “co-providers.”
- Participate in a dispute resolution process at the patient's request if the actual charges are more than $400 above the good faith estimate.
The Part 2 rule also set out the details for the dispute resolution process between payers and out-of-network providers established in the Part 1 rule.
Kim Stanger will address these new requirements in a complimentary webinar. Register today!
