No Surprises Act payment determinations on hold: 3 things ASCs need to know

Certified independent dispute resolution entities have been instructed to hold all payment determinations under the No Surprises Act. 

Here are three more things to know;

1. Until HHS and the Treasury Department issue further guidance, CMS has also asked entities to recall any payment determinations issued after Feb. 6. 
2. A federal judge in Texas ruled Feb. 6 that the No Surprises Act's revised arbitration process favors insurers. 
3. CMS said in a letter that HHS and the Treasury Departments are evaluating and updating the IDR process to make them consistent with the court's decision.
