-If the same patient has an office visit and the charge is 120.00. The patient
has met the annual deductible. If Medicare allows $95.00 for this service and
the physician accepts assignment on Medicare, how much money will be
paid and posted in the patient account? - -$76.00
Rationale: Medicare Part B pays 80% of the allowed charged. $95.00
(allowed charge) is multiplied by 80% to get the amount of $76.00 payment.
-Using the above information, how much will the patient be billed for, after
Medicare's payment? - -$14.00
Rationale: The patient has met the deductible and the physician accepts
assignment. The patients' portion of the bill is 20% of the allowed charge.
$90.00 (allowed charge) is multiplied by 20% to get $19.00.
