What it does
The Prompt and Fair Pay Act would require Medicare Advantage plans to pay providers at least the same amount as original Medicare fee-for-service for covered services starting in 2027, establishing payment parity. It would also enforce prompt payment rules for in-network providers, mandating that clean claims be paid within 14 days for electronic submissions and 30 days for paper claims, with interest required for late payments and protections against retaliation for providers who assert their payment rights. The bill applies to Medicare Advantage organizations and their contracted providers and suppliers, aiming to improve timely and equitable compensation under the program.
