New Jersey NSA Arbitration Lawyer

As a **Pennsylvania NSA Arbitration Lawyer**, Bhatt Law Group assists out-of-network providers seeking fair payment in a state that has partial balance billing protections. Pennsylvania’s Act 112 of 2014 provides some protections for patients receiving emergency care at out-of-network facilities, limiting patient liability to in-network cost-sharing amounts. However, Pennsylvania does not have a comprehensive state-level arbitration system for resolving provider-payor disputes like some neighboring states. This means the federal NSA’s Independent Dispute Resolution (IDR) process is the primary mechanism for Pennsylvania providers to challenge underpayments on covered surprise billing claims. Our attorneys help Pennsylvania providers prepare compelling IDR submissions with market comparator data, clinical complexity analysis, and geographic cost adjustments to overcome the QPA presumption and secure fair reimbursement.

As a **Connecticut NSA Arbitration Lawyer**, Bhatt Law Group represents providers in a state with robust surprise billing protections. Connecticut’s surprise billing law requires that out-of-network professional emergency and laboratory services be reimbursed at the highest of three categories: the in-network amount, the “usual, customary and reasonable rate” (UCR), or the Medicare rate. The Connecticut Insurance Commissioner has designated FAIR Health’s 80th percentile charge benchmarks as the UCR standard. For claims not covered by the state law—including self-funded ERISA plans—the federal NSA’s IDR process applies. Our attorneys leverage Connecticut’s favorable reimbursement framework and craft data-driven arbitration submissions to ensure providers receive the maximum payment for out-of-network services.

As a **Massachusetts NSA Arbitration Lawyer**, Bhatt Law Group helps out-of-network providers recover fair payment in one of the most heavily regulated health insurance markets in the country.

The federal NSA’s IDR process therefore serves as the primary mechanism for Massachusetts providers to dispute underpayments from self-funded and individual market plans. Our attorneys understand the complexities of Massachusetts’ health care regulatory landscape and prepare thorough IDR submissions supported by regional market data, provider expertise evidence, and clinical documentation to challenge insurer lowball payments.
