由于《无意外法》的漏洞,为俄亥俄州一名幼儿骑了40分钟的救护车,导致9 250美元的账单,该法允许地面救护车供应商向病人收取保险人付款与全额费用之间的差额,特别是当救护车服务在网络外时。 A 40-minute ambulance ride for an Ohio toddler led to a $9,250 bill due to a loophole in the No Surprises Act, which allows ground ambulance providers to charge patients for the difference between insurer payments and their full fees—especially when the ambulance service is out-of-network. 这一例外破坏了法律的目标,即保护病人免受突然医疗账单的伤害,并严重影响家庭,特别是农村地区的家庭。 This exception undermines the law’s goal of protecting patients from surprise medical bills and disproportionately impacts families, particularly in rural areas. 倡导者敦促立法者弥补差距,防止紧急运输造成经济困难。 Advocates are urging lawmakers to close the gap to prevent emergency transport from causing financial hardship.
