Relating to the provision of health care services by a freestanding emergency medical care facility and the collection of fees for providing those services.

SB 1511 requires freestanding emergency medical facilities to clearly post information about their emergency care fees, insurance network status, and billing practices. The bill mandates facilities to disclose that they may charge rates comparable to hospital ERs, that physicians might bill separately, and whether they are in-network or out-of-network for specific insurance plans. It also prohibits these facilities from charging facility fees for non-emergency services provided at the location. This bill aims to increase transparency for patients seeking emergency care at standalone facilities.
