Which of the following is always the payer of last resort?

1. Medicare

2. Medicaid

3. Worker’s Compensation Insurance

Answer: B

Medicaid is always the payer of last resort. This means that if a patient has more than one type of insurance coverage, and one of the insurances is Medicaid, then the biller must bill the other insurance first and Medicaid second.

In order for a physician to appropriately code for a consultation service, three

things must be documented. What are those three things?

1. The referral or request from the PCP, the rendering of the opinion by the specialist or consultant, and the written report or findings sent from the specialist to the PCP

2. The rendering of the specialty service to the patient, the referral of the patient

   from the specialist to an additional specialist, and the written report of the findings provided to the specialist

3. The specialist request of a second opinion regarding the patient, the PCP’s advice regarding which second specialist the patient should see, and the second specialist’s report or findings

4. The referral from the PCP to the specialist, an additional referral from the

specialist to another specialist, and the written report or findings sent from the specialist to the PCP

Answer: A

In order for a physician to appropriately code for a consultation service, three things must be documented. These three things are: the referral or request from the PCP, the rendering of the opinion by the specialist or consultant, and the written report or findings sent from the specialist to the PCP.

Question: 45 HIPAA was created to:

1. Protect patient privacy

2. Enact ways to uncover fraud and abuse

3. Create standards of electronic transactions

4. All of the above

5. Only options A and B

Answer: D

All of the above, HIPAA was created to protect patient privacy, enact ways to uncover fraud and abuse, and to create standards of electronic transactions. HIPAA protects patient privacy through its strict standards of confidentiality, allows organizations like the OIG to uncover fraud and abuse, and gives these organizations the power to investigate and prosecute suspected fraud and abuse cases. HIPAA also creates standards of electronic transactions, such as the ANSI 5010 update and requires encryption and passwords on websites that contain patient data.
