The membership of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC), wrote Congress to demonstrate its support of the bipartisan, bicameral compromise agreement on balance billing. This agreement addresses our top priority which is that consumers be removed from billing disputes between insurers and providers. Too many consumers have faced unexpected expenses and financial hardship because of surprise bills. The Commissioners' other priorities include protecting state surprise bill laws and regulations from federal preemption and applying surprise bill protections to consumers served by air ambulances. This bill meets our priorities and we urge quick action by Congress and offer any assistance state regulators can provide to move it over the finish line.
