Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Advanced Beneficiary Notices (ABNs) are not only for use when a service may not be considered medically necessary. They may also be used when a service is not covered by Medicare or when the provider believes Medicare may deny payment for the service. ABNs are used to inform the patient of their financial responsibility and give them the option to accept or decline the service.
