Ep. 2: Alex Taira – The No Surprises Act: Looking Ahead to 2023 | This Week in Surgery Centers

Here’s what to expect on this week’s episode. 🎙️

The No Surprises Act has been a huge topic of conversation (and sometimes controversy) for ASCs and hospitals this year.

Alex Taira, the Ambulatory Surgery Center Association‘s Regulatory Affairs and Research Manager, has been one of the industry’s go-to resources when it comes to this piece of legislation, that unfortunately still has a lot of the industry scratching their heads.

Alex joined our host, Raphael Akinsipe, on this week’s podcast to clear the air on where the industry is today and what we can expect the No Surprises Act to look like in #2023.

➡️ What is holding ASCs back from complying?

➡️ What will 2023 bring? How can we start preparing now?

➡️ Do we expect ASCs to start filing lawsuits as a few hospitals have?

➡️ … and more.
