     &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;The COVID-19 Hospital and Health Provider Loan Conversion Act of &lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;2021&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This bill establishes and otherwise modifies requirements for the Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment Program during the public health emergency relating to COVID-19 (i.e., coronavirus disease 2019). The program provides Medicare payments in advance to eligible providers experiencing claims or cash flow disruptions, such as during national emergencies; the program was specifically expanded in response to COVID-19 to encompass more types of providers, subject to certain recoupment and repayment provisions.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The bill requires the Centers for Medicare &amp;amp; Medicaid Services to waive recoupment and repayment for providers who meet specified requirements. Among other criteria, providers must not have engaged in surprise billing practices with respect to COVID-19 patients. Providers must still repay any amounts not used for COVID-19 expenses; the bill caps the interest rate on such repayments at 2% upon a demonstration of hardship.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The bill also requires private health insurers to treat out-of-network COVID-19 services as in-network for purposes of payment and cost-sharing.&lt;/p&gt;
