sorry im a student so this may seem basic to you guys.
Lets say my exam fee for an eye exam is $70.
for example if a pt has a vision plan like eyemed or vsp or something and they use that for the exam, so the way i understand it is that i would get reimbursed some of my normal exam fee (like $40) by the insurance provider for the exam.
what about the other 30. can i charge the pt for the rest or are they completely not expected to pay because of their insurance.
and how does a copay come into this.
basically what im asking is do i only make my full fees on pts with no insurance.
im trying to figure all this stuff out before i actually get out there. thanks.
