Can someone direct me to where I can find the exact laws/guidelines on the requirements of refunding patients when they overpay on their accounts. We are looking for the information to provide to our providers with regards to the time frame with which they have to issue the refund, and if there is a minimum dollar amount that does not have to be refunded for say a small balance (like under $10), or that does not have to be turned over to the state as unclaimed property due to being under a certain amount. Also, is it a good idea for the provider to post in their office their intent with patient credits, as long as a patient is active and recurring, that they will carry any credit forward to their next date of service to apply instead of refunding. If someone can direct me to where I can find this information in writing that would be greatly appreciated.
