Our boss is stating that in other states (we are in Washington) practices can balance bill patients who have DSHS/Medicaid. So in other word's if a patient has medicare primary , and medicare allow's $500.00 on a procedure, after DSHS/Medicaid (secondary) pays what they will. You instead of writing off the balance, can bill the patient for the rest of the Medicare allowable. This to my knowledge is illegal. He says that that may be in the state of Washington. But not in other states. Does anyone know what he is talking about???
