"I’m a doctor who works in a hospital every day, and I was fooled," said Dr. Danielle Ofri in The New York Times. A simple trip to urgent care for her daughter left the family with a hefty medical bill, at surprising hospital-level prices.

That's why BCBSA continues to advocate for commonsense legislation to advance site-neutral policies. https://lnkd.in/eJyw4dES
