The Secretary of Health and Human Services shall pay to a health care provider that furnishes a specified COVID–19 treatment service (as defined in section 102) to an uninsured individual (as defined in subsection (b)) an amount equal to the amount that would have been payable (including any cost-sharing requirement) under title XVIII of the Social Security Act ( 42 U.S.C. 1395 et seq.) had such service been furnished to an individual entitled to benefits under part A and enrolled under part B of such title.
For purposes of this section, the term uninsured individual means an individual who— is not enrolled in a group health plan or in group or individual health insurance coverage (as defined in section 2791 of the Public Health Service Act ( 42 U.S.C. 300gg–91 )); and is not enrolled in a Federal health care program (as defined in section 1128B(f) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1320a–7b(f))) or under the program established under chapter 89 of title 5, United States Code.
A health care provider receiving payment under subsection
(a)for a specified COVID–19 treatment service furnished to an individual may not hold such individual liable for any amount for such service. A health care provider who violates subsection
(a)shall be subject to a civil monetary penalty determined appropriate by the Secretary of Health and Human Services. The provision of section 1128A of the Social Security Act ( 42 U.S.C. 1320a–7a ) (other than subsections
(a)and (b)) shall apply with respect to a civil monetary penalty imposed under the previous sentence in the same manner as such provisions apply with respect to a penalty or proceeding under subsection
(a)of such section.
