Claim via Medicare or PHI

[glenny_c]

If the OT is in the category that is covered by medicare then you can claim both. You send it to medicare using a 2 way claim form not the usual claim form and they forward the receipt ect onto your PHI agency. Here is the form

Thanks ladies. I thought I had a primary care plan but I don't think I do. Will have to talk to OT.

I believe (and I could be wrong) it's illegal to claim from both medicare and PHI for "extras" type things (obviously hospital stuff is different).
