“We support the process established by Congress last year when it directed the Department of Transportation to collect data from the air medical industry and develop recommendations for protecting patients from balance billing, improving disclosure and informing consumers of insurance options. This is important work that must get underway immediately. Congress should not rely on anecdotes when crafting legislation to address balance billing, but rather benefit from real cost data so that it can address the underlying cause of surprise bills – the chronic under-reimbursement by government payers and private insurers. Only then will access to these life-saving services be protected and patients be taken out of the middle.”
