Good Faith Estimate
Beginning January 1, 2022, the No Surprises Act (H.R. 133) went into effect. The law includes new requirements for health care providers, facilities, health plans and insurers which are intended to prevent consumers (i.e. clients or patients) from receiving unanticipated medical bills. Regulations on good faith estimates requires all health care providers to provide good faith estimates of expected charges for services offered to uninsured and self-pay patients. These new regulations set forth specific requirements for what these good faith estimates must contain.
When you set up services with Mountain Wellness Counseling Services, you will be provided with a verbal Good Faith Estimate (GFE) and will be given a written estimate once services begin. If you are a current client, you will be provided with a GFE as well.
We will discuss this more when we connect, but for additional information about your rights to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises .
