Billing and Coding? |
Im just really confused by this, so maybe someone can explain it to me. Im in school for medical assisting, trying to do homework and i cant find the answer in my notes or on the net, so here it goes. who is my primary insurance? My second party? My third party and first party? Any help really appreciated Your primary insurance is the insurance company which will be billed first, for your medical expenses. Not everyone has a secondary, but if you do, then it is the one who picks up the rest of the bill. Actually, not everyone has primary insurance, either. Third (called tertiary in the business) would be if you had three medical insurances, and they would pick up any expenses still outstanding once all other insurances have paid.
