My questions is about Doctors waiving co-pays and/co-insurance's. If a Doctor waives co-pay at time of visit should it documented on charge slip? If so how should it be worded. Where can I find this on the Internet?

I'm trying to tell my doctor that if he waives a co-pay and not somebody else's then that show favoritism. We all know There are doctors that do it but how should it be handled Legally?

Thank you for Any input.:o
 
there is no legal way to waive a copay or co insurance,. The patient has a contractual obligation to pay their required copay/coinsurance and the physician has a responsibility to collect this amount.
