I can put that link anywhere but here somehow.
I googled "rural hospital, accepts medicare assignment"
a couple of entries down, it reads "Rural Health Clinics (RHCs) Introduction-Rural Health Information Hub"
also this PDF link:
https://www.cms.gov/Outreach-and-Education/Medicare.../RuralHlthClinfctsht.pdf
Does her plan cover Part B excess charges? "Medicare Part B Excess Charges. ... A doctor who accepts the Medicare assignment would bill at or below that rate. However, your medical provider may decide that $500 is not a sufficient reimbursement. Providers are allowed to charge up to an additional 15% over and above what Medicare has approved."
As an outpatient procedure (I assume), this would apply. PA doesn't allow it, but GA does.
That's really odd that the link gets changed after you paste it. I had the same problem with it, even using the "Insert Link" button. Anyway, what it's doing is replacing the "ru" in rural with "xyz". So if you click on the link, then change it to "rural" instead of "xyzral" in your address bar it will work. Or copy the link and open a new window or tab in your browser, paste it, then change it before you press [Enter].
