The No Surprises Act and Health Plan Price Transparency Rule are potential game changers. They affect how health plans set prices for services, negotiate provider contracts, pay for out-of-network emergency care and, perhaps most importantly, how they will be communicated to plan participants.

The regulations represent a number of new consumer protections. This program singles out “transparency.” Our speakers will provide the legislative history behind the rules and discuss any potential for enforcement discretion or delay.

  • Find out how to address the new rules with service providers.

  • Understand the implications for health plan costs.
