Answer to Question 1

With a patient undergoing a noncovered elective procedure, the medical office manager must discuss with the patient the payment of the full amount. With a covered procedure, the conversation will be about the patient's financial portion of the bill and any necessary insurance forms or paperwork, including referrals or preauthorizations that may needed.

Answer to Question 2

C
