2022 WEDI No Surprises Act Survey Results
The WEDI (@WEDIonline) No Surprises Task Group developed a survey in April, which collected input from 274 industry stakeholders. “While the No Surprises Act includes much needed consumer protections against catastrophic “surprise” bills, it also includes challenging data exchange provisions such as the convening provider/facility requirement,” stated Charles Stellar, WEDI President and CEO. “Even though the government plans to end enforcement discretion for selfpay patients at the end of this year, currently there is no standard format or established workflow to transmit data to or from the convenor.”
