We had a new front staff that kind of screwed up.
We had a patient who was 16 years old and came with her grandmother.
The patient signed all the documents such as hipaa and financial responsibility, etc.
Her grandmother signed none of those things.
I did not find out until I billed her insurance and it resulted in a deductible.
Can I still bill her?
We’re in New York and I believe the age of consent is 18 and up.
