Requests for invoice from insurance companies.

Requests for invoice from insurance companies.

James Soltau CP

Please help me!

   I have been getting a lot of requests from insurance companies lately for
invoices that show what I have paid for braces. I have tried to explain that
I make the braces from raw material in my lab so there is no invoice. I can't
get them to understand that I don't buy an AFO for X amount and then bill
my patient for a higher amount.

   Is anyone else having this problem and how are you handling it?

   I have heard that there is a law or bill that states that insurance
companies can ask doctors and therapists for an invoice but we in the OandP
field are exempt from this.

    Is this true?

     Does anyone know if there is a bill or law that states this and where I
can get a copy of it?

     I need something in writing to show the insurance companies.

   Thank you in advance
