Question 8

Are physicians permitted to bill commercial insurance for DME and, if so, are there any specific processes physicians must follow to do so?"

Accepted Answer

Physicians who have a NPI number are permitted to bill commercial insurance (aka payer) for DME.  To bill a private insurer as a participating provider, physicians typically must complete an application process and enter into a participating provider agreement with the insurer.  Physicians may also bill a private insurer as a non-participating provider (i.e., without going through the application process and signing the participating provider agreement).  However, non-participating providers typically are reimbursed at a lower rate by the insurer and some insurers will not reimburse non-participating providers directly (i.e., the insurer reimburses the patient and the physician must seek payment from the patient).

Question 15

Will my insurance pay for brace(s) I ordered? How much will they cover?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Billions Centuries Inc dedicates to supply reimbursement/billing coded ( insurance/prescription/PDAC approved) orthopedic bracings ( known as durable medical equipment  aka DME) at manufacurer direct, affordable prices due to high deductibles, coinsurance, no insurance, and sometimes simply needed extras not covered by insurance.
Our client specialists are happy to work together with customers on insurance eligibility.
 
If you are a Medicare beneficiary or covered by any other insurance payer, you have options available rather than paying out of pocket for your bracings. We are here to provide the alternative options that are available to customers who wish to obtain these supplies at deeply discounted prices without billing insurance.
 
Even when Medicare or other insurance pays for orthopedic bracings, there might be extra costs. You may need to pay a deductible (money you pay before insurance starts) and coinsurance (percentage of the cost). Medigap or other supplementary insurance may pick up some of these costs. 
 
Here is an example about Medicare payments.
Medicare Part B pays for DME in the same way it covers the costs of doctor visits and out-of-hospital tests and treatments. Under Medicare Part B, the patient pays a once-a-year deductible (this varies from time to time) for all covered services. After that, the patient pays a 20% coinsurance fee for any service or DME products. In many cases, the 20% coinsurance fee might be higher than BCI super discount price.
 
As you know, most of our customers shop with us for cost savings on out of pocket expenses. Its your call to make the smart choice getting affordbale luxury bracings!
