Good Faith Estimates (GFEs) do more than keep you compliant with the No Surprises Act — they give patients clarity, so they stay confident in your care.
Deliver clear cost breakdowns
Safeguard patient data
Stay ahead of evolving policies
Reduce billing disputes

Under the No Surprises Act of 2022, hospitals and ASCs are required to provide patients with a Good Faith Estimate of expected healthcare costs before care is delivered. This requirement protects patients from surprise bills and builds trust.

Provider charges & fees
Insurance responsibility
Patient out-of-pocket costs
Most billing systems offer Phase 1 compliance. Our platform is the only medical billing software that addresses all 3 phases — ensuring you stay compliant as requirements expand.

PHase 1
We provide clear cost breakdowns and send mobile text-to-pay options, making it easier for uninsured and self-pay patients to pay upfront.
Providers offering upfront GFEs see a 40% increase in point-of-service collections.
PHase 2
We run insurance verification and eligibility checks, then coordinate with payers — enabling accurate Advanced Explanations of Benefits (AEOBs) that give patients a clear view of coverage and out-of-pocket costs.
Clear cost transparency reduces billing disputes by up to 50% and raises HCAHPS scores.


PHase 3
We combine charges across multiple providers and facilities to deliver one unified Good Faith Estimate for the full episode of care.
Hospitals using consolidated GFEs cut dispute resolution timelines by weeks while improving payer trust.
