What Does the ‘No Surprises Act’ Mean For Patients?

For too long, working people and their families who needed emergency medical care braced themselves for an unpleasant surprise after treatment: a balance due bill from any non-network healthcare providers. Fortunately, a new law, the No Surprises Act, may have changed that.

Signed into law in December 2020 as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, the No Surprises Act provides protections against balance bills from non-network providers for emergency treatment and for some non-emergency care. What does the Act and its provisions mean for patients and their families? In this post, our Employee Benefits attorneys explain the No Surprises Act and outline several scenarios in which it could save patients thousands of dollars in medical bills.

The attorneys in the Willig, Williams & Davidson Employee Benefits Group understand that high quality health care and a secure retirement are the most important assets that labor unions offer to working families. We are committed to providing the highest level of representation to Taft-Hartley pension and welfare trust funds and to unions that negotiate for their members’ benefits.
