§ 358-T-5. Section 358-T:5 Balance Billing for Ground Ambulance Services Prohibited.

I. If a covered person with covered benefits that include ground ambulance services under a health benefit plan is furnished ground ambulance services, then, whether the ground ambulance provider is a participating provider or a nonparticipating provider, the ground ambulance provider shall not bill, and shall not hold liable, the covered person for a payment amount for such services that is more than the cost-sharing requirement for such services under the covered person's health benefit plan. II. Paragraph I shall not apply with respect to ground ambulance services that consist of scheduled inter-facility transfers of the covered person furnished by a nonparticipating ground ambulance provider if the provider satisfies the notice and consent criteria under 42 U.S.C. section 300gg-132(c) and (d).
