Senator Hassan Sits Down with State of the Union Guest Donna Beckman About Surprise Medical Bills

Senator Hassan is hosting Donna Beckman of Seabrook as her guest of honor for President Trump’s State of the Union Address. Donna received a surprise medical bill for $1,648 following a visit to an emergency room that was in her insurance network. She was only later told that a doctor she saw — for about 5 minutes — was actually out-of-network. Senator Hassan is leading efforts in Congress to address surprise medical bills, which pose a financial burden on Granite Staters like Donna and people across the country who receive massive, unexpected medical bills, often for receiving care that they didn’t realize was considered out-of-network.
