In addition to all the other Covid 19 relief passed in 2020, The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 contains another $40 billion targeted SPECIFICALLY at ACA and Employer-related health insurance issues. Let’s dive in, shall we, and talk about how all this wonderful borrowing will be spent!
Federal legislation and regulatory guidance, such as the CARES Act, have significantly expanded access and coverage for testing and treatment of COVID-19. Physicians face a significant risk in responding to a potential wave coming of reimbursement and coverage disputes related to these expanded efforts. Payment disputes are likely to result from indirect affects such as driving patients to out-of-network care due to in-network capacity limitations. This presentation will discuss provider-payment disputes related to the expansion of treatment of COVID-19, and other payment issues facing providers such as prompt payment requirements, balanced billing and case examples.
