Occurrences

No Surprise Bills for New Moms Act would require health insurers to automatically provide coverage to newborns for 30 days after birth, establish a uniform 60-day enrollment period for newborns after those first 30 days, and notify parents if they receive a bill for an uncovered newborn.

Nadler reintroduced bipartisan legislation committing to prevent surprise medical bills for newborns by mandating automatic initial coverage, a standardized enrollment period, and notice to parents about uncovered bills.

Representatives Jerrold Nadler and Ashley Hinson reintroduced the No Surprise Bills for New Moms Act. The bill would require insurers to automatically cover newborns for 30 days after birth, establish a uniform 60-day enrollment period after those first 30 days, and notify parents if they receive a bill for an uncovered newborn.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Latest concrete official action found was Nadler reintroducing matching legislation in the current Congress; no enactment or final agency implementation was found in the Aug. 16-18, 2026 lookback. This is serious legislative effort but does not itself deliver the promised coverage requirement.

GovInfo lists H.R. 3387 as the No Surprise Bills for New Moms Act, introduced in the House on May 16, 2023, with Jerrold Nadler as a cosponsor. The record identifies the version as Introduced in House and says it was referred to Energy and Commerce, Education and the Workforce, and Ways and Means.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The prior Congress version matched the commitment and included Nadler as a cosponsor, but the official record shows only introduction/referral, not passage or enactment. This supports unresolved status while showing concrete effort.

Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): unresolved. same_term A for effort

Nadler materially advanced legislation matching the promise by reintroducing and cosponsoring the No Surprise Bills for New Moms Act, which would provide 30-day automatic newborn coverage, a uniform 60-day enrollment period, and parent notification before uncovered newborn bills. However, the available federal record shows introduction/referral and no enactment or final federal implementation as of August 18, 2026. Because Nadler remains in office and the current Congress has not conclusively ended, the promise is not delivered yet but remains unresolved rather than a completed failure.
