Patient-Friendly Billing

Summary

Beginning Jan. 1, 2027, hospitals, clinics and other listed health facilities must provide patients with an electronic or paper itemized bill for services and supplies and must clearly notify patients of this right. Patients may waive the bill but can request it later, and facilities cannot start debt‑collection efforts until a bill is provided or waived. Collection agencies must stop collection if billing errors are discovered.
