SB 2805 Oppose One-Pager – Forcing Health Plans to Pay All Arbitration Costs Will Inflate Premiums

TAHP opposes Senate Bill 2805, which would shift 100% of arbitration fees to health plans under Texas’s surprise billing protections—removing incentives for providers to settle fairly and pushing more billing disputes into costly arbitration. This would drive up premiums for employers and families, undermine the balance achieved by SB 1264, and threaten the stability of Texas’s patient protections against surprise bills.
