What is the requirement to bill a patient's insurance if they do not present it at the time of service or even within 6 months of the visit date? We have had a couple cases in which patients presented insurance cards over 6 months after their initial visit. In both cases, the insurance required claims be submitted within 120 from the date of service, so if we bill now the claims will deny for timely filing. Are we required to still bill insurance and make the appropriate insurance adjustments? We are an FQHC in Oregon.
