Here are the facts: Insurers are ignoring the law, and there are no consequences.
Congress passed the No Surprises Act to protect patients and create a fair, binding payment process. Insurers are ignoring it.
Across the country, insurers are delaying payments even after losing in the Independent Dispute Resolution (IDR) process, missing legal deadlines, and facing no real penalties.
Physicians are frustrated. Practices are strained. Patient access is at risk.
This is not what Congress intended.
The No Surprises Act Enforcement Act (H.R. 4710/S. 2420) is a simple, targeted fix. It does not rewrite the law. It simply gives the Department of Health and Human Services the authority to enforce payment deadlines and penalize insurers who fail to comply.
Momentum is growing, but more support is needed to move this legislation forward.
Take action now. Urge your lawmakers to cosponsor H.R. 4710/S. 2420 and send a clear message: enforce the law and protect patient access to care.
Your continued advocacy makes a difference. Don't let this effort lose momentum.
