No Surprises Act

Your Rights and Protections Against Surprise Medical Bills

At Power County Hospital District, we are committed to transparency in healthcare billing and helping patients understand their rights.

Federal law protects patients from many unexpected medical bills, also known as surprise medical bills or balance billing, in certain situations.

These protections generally apply to:

• Emergency medical services

• Certain services received at an in-network hospital from out-of-network providers

• Other situations covered under the federal No Surprises Act

The notice explains your rights, protections, and what to do if you believe you have been improperly billed.
