No Surprise Act Billing Disclosure Notice
New Law in effect January 1, 2022
As of January 1, 2022 all healthcare providers must provide a “Good Faith Estimate” to those patients who are private pay or are billing insurance Out-Of-Network. This law does not currently apply to patients who are using In-Network benefits.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who do not have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.
You have a right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.
You can ask your healthcare, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
