Description

The speakers will cover both a policy and practice perspective of the changes being enacted but the multiple provision in the federal No Surprise Act of 2020. As the Department of Health and Human Services continues to formulate and put into effect the structures to comply with these provisions, we have seen some level of confusion and unexpected items, leaving those in the roles to implement these new practices without a clear understanding of how to proceed.
