No Surprises Act
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical
and mental health care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give
patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the
expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the
right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency
healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your healthcare
provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you
schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith
Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good
Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith
Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
