Physicians and providers agree that independent dispute resolution (IDR) is the best federal solution to prevent surprise medical bills while protecting patient access to emergency care.

An association is required to provide a ?fair, reasonable, and expeditious procedure for resolving a dispute? between the association and a member involving the rights, duties or liabilities under the Davis-Stirling Act or the association's governing documents.

The final rules released in August removed the provisions that the District Court vacated and specify that IDR entities should select the offer that best represents the value of the item or service under dispute after considering the QPA and all permissible information submitted by the parties.

The Informal Dispute Resolution (IDR) process gives nursing facilities, assisted living facilities, intermediate care facilities, Home and Community-based Service and Texas Home Living waiver providers the opportunity to informally dispute regulatory survey findings.

The administrative fee?initially set at $50 for calendar year 2023?is based on the cost to the agencies to carry out the IDR process and is paid by each party upon initiation of the process.

Surprise out-of-network bills arise when a consumer receives care from an out-of-network provider in a situation she cannot reasonably control, such as being treated by an out-of-network anesthesiologist at an in-network hospital.

The IDR process is a ?baseball-style? arbitration such that the arbiter will ultimately choose one of the final reimbursement offers submitted by either the provider or the payor with the arbiter's decision deemed final and binding, except for limited circumstances.

IDR entities are third-party organizations that are certified by the federal government to arbitrate the payment amount between plans and providers.
