EOB HELP

(1/1)

ellie:
47562 PAID BY MEDICARE
47001 NOT PAID - CANNOT BILL SEPARATELY. WROTE THIS OFF.

SECONDARY PAID FOR THE 47001- IS PATIENT RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR DEDUCTIBLE & COINSURANCE THAT THEY STATE FOR THIS EVEN THOUGH I HAD WRITTEN IT OFF ? 

PLEASE REFRESH MY MEMORY ??

ellie:
can't anyone help me with this ?

Michele:
Sorry, I have been out for a week with a death in the family.  When you say secondary paid for the 47001, did they pay or allow it?  It looks like it went to the deductible.  Anyway, I believe you are only able to charge the patient the amount that Medicare states is patient responsibility.

ellie:
sorry to hear about the death in your family, I went through that just two weeks ago.

Total charge was 1950.00 They paid 943.98 - The Eob from secondary bc states 1006.02 deductible coinsurance due. This was a crossover claim from Medicare. Medicare eob stated - this service/report 47001 cannot be billed separately, so I wrote it off, bc came back and paid the 943.98. Don't know whether to balance bill the patient or not Michelle ? What would you do or suggest. I called bc and they stated they can't tell me whether to charge the patient or not. lol really !!!!!!!

Michele:
What did Medicare pay and what was the PR on the MEOB?  Sorry, just not enough info to be sure.
