The No Surprises Act is aimed at protecting consumers from unexpected medical bills and prohibits providers from balance billing patients for certain out-of-network charges. Other provisions include ensuring patients are only responsible for in-network cost-sharing amounts for these services, and establishing a dispute resolution process for any provider-payer disputes. In the wake of these requirements, payors and providers are faced with a variety of challenges to meet new requirements and aggressive deadlines.

“Liz’s expertise in the complexities of arbitration is invaluable as she works with our customers to comply with the regulations of the No Surprises Act,” said Dale White, MultiPlan President, Chief Operating Officer. “Deadlines for a variety of the mandates are approaching quickly and MultiPlan is prepared to lead its customers through the challenges these requirements present.”
