Does Ohio's balance-billing law (SB 1264) affect out-of-network billing?
Yes. Ohio's SB 1264 protections, layered with the federal No Surprises Act, make out-of-network billing and patient cost estimates more complex — an area our team handles directly.

No. FYNQ never guarantees specific revenue or collection results. We focus on the process — clean claims, worked denials, and clear reporting — designed to improve billing performance over time.
