Good Faith Estimate Notice
The federal “No Surprises Act” grants consumers the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. Under the law, health care providers are required to give clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for treatment services. The act also requires healthcare providers to inform their clients of this right. You can ask your health care provider 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. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
