Just a few questions -
When Medicare posts that the patient has a deductible and the patient has Medicaid but they don't pay does the patient still owe the deductible? Sometimes I see Medicaid does pay for part of the deductible (but I think it's in error on their part). I have seen when Mediaid has come back some time later and take the payment out of the system.
Do I write off the balance due if Medicaid posts "Denial"? I usually don't write those off due to not being eligibile. Should I? I see in the system that another employee before me wrote them off when it read "Denial". I usually write off the posts that read "Did not pay on the Charge".
Last one - Does anyone know why Medicare would not pay on the charge (when the patient is still on Medicare) and take the full amount and adjust it off? I see this all the time and I'm not sure why they do it.
Thanks for your help.
