flag A 40-minute ambulance ride for an Ohio toddler led to a $9,250 bill due to a loophole in the No Surprises Act, which allows ground ambulance providers to charge patients for the difference between insurer payments and their full fees—especially when the ambulance service is out-of-network. flag This exception undermines the law’s goal of protecting patients from surprise medical bills and disproportionately impacts families, particularly in rural areas. flag Advocates are urging lawmakers to close the gap to prevent emergency transport from causing financial hardship.
