Buried in SB 623 are 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬 that could have significant implications for the financial risk behind personal injury care.
Why do those words matter?
Because they may influence how physicians, surgery centers, and other healthcare providers evaluate the risk of treating personal injury patients on a lien basis, particularly in rideshare cases.
The issue isn't simply what happens after a case settles.
It's what happens before treatment even begins.
Providers have to consider delayed payment, reduced reimbursement, medical funding, operating costs, staffing, and the possibility that certain bills may ultimately become "void and unenforceable."
And when the financial equation changes, the question becomes:
Will providers still be financially able and willing to assume that risk?
That could have consequences far beyond billing.
It could affect whether patients are able to access the medically necessary care they need.
So, what are those three words?
“𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐝 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐔𝐧𝐞𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞.”
