NO SURPRISES ACT


HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW.

On January 1, 2022, the No Surprises Act (NSA) went into effect. Effective for
members when their health plan year commences in 2022, the NSA prohibits
surprise medical bills for patients like you for many — but not all —
out-of-network services, when the member cannot control where or who they
receive care from.

However, there are still situations when patients are not covered by the NSA.
That’s where Naviguard comes in.

What the NSA covers

Under the NSA, providers of certain types of services will not be allowed to
bill and pursue you directly for certain types of surprise medical bills.

These include emergency services (except ground ambulance), or when an
out-of-network provider is involved in your care while they are at an in-network
facility.

What the NSA does not cover

In general, if you choose to see a doctor or specialist who is not in-network,
the NSA and its protections will not apply, and you may face much higher costs
than your health plan’s in-network rate. The NSA does not protect patients from
balance billing for ground ambulance services, or when the law’s notice and
consent requirements are met.
