“As a doctor I can tell you that 99% of us will not ask this and check to see if you answered it on some form the government makes you fill out. What a joke.”
What if....say you have a medicare patient..and medicare will not process a payment until the paperwork is ‘complete’.
We are so short of doctors to take care of medicare pts, I’m one who does, that we won’t have the time. A nurse will ask or a receptionist etc. and the pt can say what they want. It will not be important or relevant to us. Guaranteed.
