You are accurate chels1918
Medicare in an outpatient setting will not cover this charge; does your healthcare facility know how to complete an ABN? You can find that information on the CMS.gov website to help.
This was the link I found and stated 2024


I am hopeful you will find the information you need. You can just simply not click my link and just place "abn document" in your google browser and about halfway down you will find the title FFS (with straight bar down) ABN CMS Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services
