We have a biller that believes that everyone we bill has to be checked for COVID bec insurance will pay fully (deductible and copay) if there is a dx of covid suspected/confirmed. She goes into the hospital system looking at the labs to check for COVID dx. We had warned her that it would be a HIPAA issue.
She insists that we are helping the patients if they are suspected/confirmed COVID then no copays/deductibles.
We deal mostly with cardiac patients and we feel there is no need to be searching for COVID dx for fear of HIPAA violation.
