No Surprises Act
In compliance with the No Surprises Act, patients who are not enrolled in an insurance plan or who are not planning to use their insurance can receive a Good Faith Estimate (GFE) explaining how much their non-emergency medical care is anticipated to cost.
Your health care provider can give you GFE in writing at least one business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
Keep a copy or picture of your GFE.
