@seiu.orgReposted by @familiesusa.bsky.socialFar too many working people are being forced to skip doctors visits and go without refilling life-saving prescription medication because healthcare costs are too expensive!

@familiesusa.bsky.socialThe No Surprises Act protects patients from surprise medical bills, but a new @cbsnews.com investigation shows how it's arbitration process can be abused to extract payments far above benchmark rates.

@familiesusa.bsky.socialWe are thrilled Rep. Pallone is proposing this common-sense solution to end the industry abuse of arbitration by replacing it with a market-based benchmark. This bill would take away the incentive for corporate middlemen to flood the system with disputes and win inflated payouts.
@familiesusa.bsky.socialToday, @pallone.house.gov introduced new legislation to help control health costs and stop the industry abuse of the independent dispute resolution (IDR) process in the No Surprises Act.

@familiesusa.bsky.social⚠️ Don't be fooled! CMS is taking a victory lap, announcing Rural Health Transformation grant awards to states — but the Rural Health Transformation Program is not a reasonable replacement for the security and predictability of Medicaid funding.
