No Surprises Act


The No Surprises Act protects clients covered under group or individual health plans and/or uninsured or self-pay clients from receiving “surprise” bills for most emergency and/or non-emergency treatment from out-of-network providers. 


Better Mental Health Services will provide a “Good Faith Estimate” for anticipated services upon request. If you receive a bill more than $400 above the good faith estimate, you may dispute this bill.
