What it does
The Fair Billing Act would amend the Social Security Act to require each off-campus outpatient department of a provider to have its own unique health identifier and for the provider to submit periodic attestations confirming compliance with federal provider-based status rules, starting January 1, 2026. Payments for services furnished by such departments would be withheld unless these requirements are met. The bill also mandates that the HHS Inspector General review and report on the implementation process by January 1, 2030. It affects healthcare providers with off-campus outpatient departments and aims to improve billing accuracy and prevent improper Medicare payments.
