The provisions of Title I (the No Surprises Act) and Title II (Transparency) of the CAA prohibit surprise/balance billing for emergency services and non-emergency services provided by out-of-network providers at in-network facilities and provide numerous patient protections, including the right to receive good faith cost estimates for services. Through Salesforce, the MATS team implemented and maintains the federal IDR process; collects data on user fees from individuals using the IDR process and passes the data to other CCIIO stakeholders; certifies Independent Dispute Resolution Entities (IDREs); and reports quarterly data on group health plans offering group or individual health insurance coverage.
