2nd Patient Access Trivia

Explanation
All required fields on the patient page in STAR are also fields on the guarantor page except race. This means that all the information that is necessary to be filled out for a patient is also required for the guarantor, except for the race field. This suggests that the system treats the patient and guarantor as separate entities but requires similar information for both, with the exception of race.

Explanation
The statement implies that children under the age of 15 are not capable of being responsible for their own financial obligations. This is generally true as minors do not have the legal capacity to enter into binding contracts or assume financial responsibilities. Therefore, they cannot be listed as their own guarantor, which is someone who takes responsibility for another person's debts or obligations if they fail to fulfill them.

Explanation
A patient cannot pre-register for a Series Account. Pre-registration is a process where a patient provides their information in advance to expedite the check-in process on the day of their appointment. However, a Series Account is a type of financial account that allows patients to pay for a series of medical services in advance. These two concepts are unrelated, and therefore, it is not possible for a patient to pre-register for a Series Account.

Explanation
Medicaid does not cover routine x-rays for family planning purposes. Family planning Medicaid typically covers services related to contraception, reproductive health, and family planning counseling, but not diagnostic tests like x-rays. Therefore, Medicaid will not pay for an x-ray in this scenario.

Explanation
When admitting a patient to observation status, you do not have to enter P for private bed. This statement is false because the admission status of a patient does not determine the type of bed they are assigned. The bed assignment is based on the availability and suitability of the beds in the hospital, not the patient's status.
