However, advocates say it’s important for consumers to still be on the lookout for these charges and to know what steps to take if they get hit with one anyway."

I think that banning out-of-network bills will help consumers greatly. I have Tricare (which is amazing), but I occasionally get billed for the anesthesiologist for minor procedures. It is negligible for me, but many people face crushing debt or bankruptcy due to hidden medical expenses.
