Here are three more things to know;

  1. Until HHS and the Treasury Department issue further guidance, CMS has also asked entities to recall any payment determinations issued after Feb. 6. 
  2. A federal judge in Texas ruled Feb. 6 that the No Surprises Act’s revised arbitration process favors insurers. 
  3. CMS said in a letter that HHS and the Treasury Departments are evaluating and updating the IDR process to make them consistent with the court’s decision.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
