Protect New Yorkers From Abusive Insurance Companies!

New York State's budget for State Fiscal Year 2021 must include important provisions to protect New Yorkers from abusive insurance companies that wrongly refuse to pay for medically necessary care and emergency care.

Urge your State legislators to support the following insurance reforms:

• Stop insurers from denying claims simply because one of their administrative rules wasn't followed
• Require insurers to respond within one business day to requests for rehabilitation care
• Reduce the timeframe for insurers to act on appeals and to pay interest on overturned denials
• Require insurers to pay for services provided by new physicians during the credentialing process
• Prohibit hospitals from billing patients for out-of-network emergency services that patients are not responsible for
• Require insurers to notify providers of patients' plan information
• Require insurers to report on claims payment activity, including denials
• Require insurers to use national coding guidelines to limit their ability to reduce payments
• Create a workgroup to recommend how to reduce health care administrative costs
