I have been having an issue with trying to find information on when patients have Medicare and Medicaid.
An example is that the patient has Medicare and Medicaid, but Medicaid is only family planning. The practice did NOT file the Medicaid b/c we knew that it was only FP but Medicare crossed over the claim to Medicaid. Can we bill the patient b/c Medicaid did not pay?
If you have any documentation to support what your practice follows it would be greatly appreciated. I have looked in a lot of the CMS manuals and such but haven't been able to find the answer.
THANK YOU!!
