Can a doctor bill a medicare medical patient if they do not participate with MediCal Medicaid?
There are three categories of medical providers.
Participating providers bill Medicare and accept what Medicare pays.
Non Participating providers decide on a case by case basis. If they do not participate for your service, they send in a claim and the check comes to you. It is the Medicare allowed amount minus your deductible or co-insurance. Medicare allows the provider to bill you 115% of the allowed amount. The Medicare Summary Notice with the check details all of this.
Private contracting providers file a form with Medicare saying that they will not accept any payment from Medicare for any service or any patient. Once they do so, they can not rejoin for two years. However, they must have the patient sign a form that the patient agrees to receive the service an pay for it without any benefit from Medicare.
