Hello,
We all don't like "Family history: non-contributory" and don't allow it - it's common knowledge. However, my facility would like to have the written back-up as to why this is not allowed.
I've looked through the various threads and written a few inquiries privately AND searched the Internet ... nada. A thought in the back of my head is that this was an OIG thing, but I can't find anything on that either.
Does anyone have an article they can provide me the citation with or a specific carrier's dictum on that? We have Palmetto in CA and I could write a letter and ask it for clarification, but that might take a little time.
Thanks much -
Carol
