“RIGHT TO RECEIVE A GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE OF EXPECTED CHARGES”

UNDER THE “NO SURPRISES ACT”

​​​​

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.

Under the law, health care providers are required to give patients who don’t have insurance, or who are not using insurance, an estimate of the expected charges for medical items and services. This includes services like mental health therapy.

You can request a Good Faith Estimate from your health care provider—and from any other provider you choose—before you schedule a service.

​If you receive a bill that is $400 or more than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or take a picture of your Good Faith Estimate for your records.
