Out-of-Network Bill Hits Snag in State Senate, Likely Delayed Until Fall
From NJ Spotlight, June 9, 2015
The brakes have been applied to a legislative push to lower the cost of surprise medical bills, after state senators raised concerns about the arbitration process that is at the heart of the bill, as well as whether the bill would give too much power to insurers – with one critic saying it would give them a “blank check.”
The Out of Network Consumer Protection, Transparency, Cost Containment and Accountability Act, S-20/A-4444, was pulled from a vote from the Senate Commerce Committee yesterday as committee members from both parties questioned various pieces of the bill.
Sen. Joseph F. Vitale (D-Middlesex) asked for the delay in hopes of improving its chances of being enacted. Since there are usually few committee hearings during the summer, it’s likely that the bill won’t be considered again until the fall.
