"Beaumont waives emergency copays and deductibles for federal workers during shutdown"
Beaumont being a hospital in the metro Detroit area. While this seems quote generous, it struck me that it didn't sound ... kosher.
So I reached out to co-blogger (and certified Medical Office Manager) Kelley B, and asked if they could do this.
She replied "Yes they can, but they have to do it for Everyone."
Everyone?
Meaning not just Federal workers affected by the shutdown?
"That is correct. Every person who comes in has to be treated exactly the same. CMS is very specific to that point."
Ooops, looks like someone's in a heap o'trouble (or about to be).
