Insurance companies and health insurers love to pull the out-of-network trick. Senators had a provision that would marginally help patients avoid “surprise billing,” but Ways and Means Chair Richard Neal and ranking Republican member Kevin Brady worked to torpedo that.
“This allows Neal to continue fundraising from both sides of the dispute. He’s received $31,800 from Blackstone, owner of one of the top two physician staffing groups. And he’s also received $145,600 from the insurance industry, $95,000 of that in corporate PAC funds. (Neal is the leading recipient of corporate PAC donations in Congress.)”
