A private contract is an agreement between a patient and a provider who does not provide services through the Medicare program.

This type of contract allows the provider to charge their own fees, rather than being limited to the Medicare pay scale.Rate this question:

Medicare Part B has a $147 deductible for 2014, which is followed by a 20% coinsurance.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Medicare Part B does have a $147 deductible for 2014, which means that individuals are required to pay this amount out of pocket before their coverage begins. After the deductible is met, there is a 20% coinsurance, which means that Medicare will cover 80% of the approved amount for services, and the individual is responsible for the remaining 20%. Therefore, the statement "Medicare Part B has a $147 deductible for 2014, which is followed by a 20% coinsurance" is true.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. The provider may charge the customer more for the service, but that amount is limited to no more than 15%Explanation
If a provider accepts Medicare but not Medicare Assignment, they have the freedom to charge the customer more for the service. However, there are limitations on the amount they can charge. The provider can charge the customer more, but the additional amount is restricted to no more than 15% over Medicare's approved amount. This ensures that the provider cannot excessively overcharge the customer and keeps the costs within a reasonable limit.Rate this question:

-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Medicare Part A is usually premium-free because it is funded through payroll taxes that individuals pay while working. On the other hand, Medicare Part B requires a monthly premium because it covers services like doctor visits, outpatient care, and medical supplies that are not fully funded by payroll taxes. Therefore, individuals enrolled in Medicare typically have to pay a monthly premium for Part B coverage.Rate this question:
