According to the CAA
For self-insured employers:
As an employer, it’s now your responsibility to ensure your health plan is cost-effective. The Consolidated Appropriations Act (CAA) in 2023 will make self-insured employers the fiduciaries for the healthcare services that they purchase. Fiduciaries may consider how the CAA’s ‘covered service provider’ compensation disclosures could inform generally applicable ERISA principles tied to ensuring those vendors are paid reasonable compensation. This also applies to how health plans or third-party administrators had been bargaining for their employer clients. (HR133)
Be in compliance with the No Surprises Act
HPG includes the qualifying payment amount (QPA).
The QPA for every medical service is the basis for determining individual cost sharing for items and services covered by the balance-billing protections in the No Surprises Act (NSA), (CMS)
