Does anyone know if it's OK to bill a patient who has Medicare primary, Medi-Cal secondary, Medicare applies service to deductible and Dr. is not contracted with Medi-cal?
I would prefer to have something in writing. The most recent information I have is from 2010:
As of 1/1/2010, you can no longer see a Medicare patient that also has Medi-Cal and collect any portion from the patient that would normally be covered by Medi-Cal, even if you are not a Medi-Cal provider.
Just wanted to know if anyone knew if this was still current or had any other information to offer. All help is greatly appreciated!
