Nevada Billing Rights

Additional State-Law Protections for Patients with State-Regulated Health Plans

Nevada has laws in place that prohibit balance billing to the covered person in certain emergency situations at Nev. Rev. Stat. §§ 439B.700 – 439B.760. The NSA covers everything protected under current Nevada state law and more. In situations where the state has stricter statutes to protect consumers, or rules in place determining the rate of compensation due to the out-of-network providers, the federal law defers to the state law. Nev. Rev. Stat. § 439.757 allows ERISA plans to opt-in, or not, to Nevada’s balance billing statutes.
