Medical Malpractice Insurance: What You Need To Know – Medical Justice

Founder, Jeff Segal, MD, JD, FACS & General Counsel, Mike Sacapolus of Medical Justice Share HIPAA Rules Related to Referring Doctors and Insurance. Visit us online at https://goo.gl/Ddj3Cx or call 877-633-5878. Hi, I'm Jeff Segal, founder, and CEO of Medical Justice and eMerit. We're here today with our general counsel, Mike Sacopulos. Jeff: If a doctor wants to connect with a referring doctor to get information from that referring doctor does the patient need to sign a HIPAA release to get that information or can a doctor actually speak with a referring doctor directly and learn all the things he needs to about that patient? Mike: Can definitely speak directly with the referring physician and provide information to the referring physician unless for some odd reason the patient has specifically said," Do not share my information with anyone." But in the general course of treatment when you're referring a patient on, yes, you can provide information to the referral source. Jeff: And what about an insurance company. If a patient comes in and presents their BlueCross card, is it assumed that you can then submit a claim on their behalf or send information to the insurance company to get paid or do you need the patient then to fill out reams of paperwork to accomplish that? Mike: No, in a move of surprising efficiency that was excluded from the rules if it's in the scope of getting paid for the services that you rendered, there's no specific requirement there. So, you may go ahead and bill third-party payers. Jeff: Who knew? It's great news. For more information or to join our mailing list, sign up at info@medicaljustice.com.
