Senator Roger Marshall Co-Sponsors No Surprises Act Enforcement Act to Increase Penalties for Insurers
Senator Roger Marshall (R-KS), alongside Representative Greg Murphy (R-NC), has introduced companion versions of the No Surprises Act Enforcement Act (H.R. 4710/S. 2420). This legislative effort aims to address various issues that have emerged since the implementation of the No Surprises Act in 2022. Insurers, healthcare providers, and employers have identified several challenges with the law's requirements. The proposed bill specifically focuses on increasing penalties for insurers found to be in violation of the No Surprises Act. As of August 20, the House version of the bill has garnered significant bipartisan support, with 36 co-sponsors, indicating growing traction for these legislative fixes ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. The No Surprises Act was initially designed to protect patients from unexpected medical bills from out-of-network providers.
