The No Surprises Act was supposed to eliminate surprise bills w/o increasing premiums.
But that goal now appears at risk.
We find that prices emerging from arbitration are much higher than prior in-network rates.
As a result, the law may perversely end up ↑ premiums.
New analysis w/ @LorenAdler looks at early results from the No Surprises Act arbitration process.
In short: the prices emerging are quite high, and there is a real chance that the law will raise prices/premiums, not reduce them as CBO predicted.
