A common issue faced by Pennsylvania automobile insurance carriers is whether the allowable reductions under Act 6 apply to the bills issued by out-of-state medical providers for treatment rendered as a result of a motor vehicle accident.
More specifically, where a Pennsylvania resident with a Pennsylvania automobile insurance policy gets into an accident in another state, such as in New Jersey, New York, Maryland or Delaware, and treats with medical providers in that other state, is the first party medical benefits carrier entitled to pay only the Act 6 reduced amounts of the related medical expenses as set forth under 75 Pa.C.S.A. Section 1797?
