No Surprises and Allied Organizations to Congress: It is Past Time to Act On Surprise Billing Protections

Thu, September, 17th, 2020

Members of No Surprises: People Against Unfair Medical Bills were joined by leading organizations representing patients, consumers, health equity stakeholders, small businesses, children and families in sending the attached letter to Congressional leadership, urging immediate action to provide consumers protection from surprise medical bills.

Surprise billing was a common and destructive problem prior to the pandemic, and the situation is even more dire now. It is well past time to provide consumers relief from this unfair and often devastating practice, particularly as coronavirus infection rates climb and financial insecurity for families remains at record levels.
