Our doctor saw a patient/friend/relative in the office and did two minor procedures. The doctor didn't charge the patient. The patient now wants us to submit a statement showing the CPT codes with zero dollar amounts to a supplemental policy, which he/she states will pay the patient for any hospital stays or surgeries. We didn't submit this to the patients health INS and we are contracted with them. We are not sure how these type of supplemental policies work. Can we get in trouble from the health INS co for not filing? Ethically can we do this? Thank you.
