Subject: Billing 2 Insurance plans

Has anyone billed another insurance for the homemaker charges that Medicare will not cover? The Medica is not a secondary coverage to Medicare. We are billing straight to Medicare as the patient is Homebound and qualifies to bill to Medicare directly.

Thank you!
