A HIPAA authorization arrives for a 12-year-old patient. The SIGN field is signed by the patient's mother, but the Authorized Representative Name, DOB, and Relationship to Patient fields in Section 1 are all blank. Is the enrollment clear to process? Explain what's required and what the agent must do.

No — this is Missing Information. For patients under 18, the Authorized Representative section is required (it's an "X" across all five services), so blank Name, DOB, and Relationship fields trigger MI even though the HIPAA signature itself is present. The Authorized Representative is the correct signer for a minor, but once identified the agent must also create an Association record (Role: Auth Rep, Caregiver, etc.) linking them to the patient. Note too that if the Auth Rep DOB in the signature block is blank or wrong, the Section 1 DOB can satisfy it automatically — but only if that Section 1 DOB is present; otherwise it's MI as well.

400

Section 4: Diagnosis is received with the 'L20.89' box checked, in addition to the other 'ICD-10-CM Code' with L30.0 written on the line. Is this Missing Information? Explain your answer.

A pediatric enrollment arrives for a Lilly Conducted BV: the Section 1 DOB is blank, the signature-block DOB is blank, both device-type boxes are checked, and only the Induction dose is selected. Identify every one of these four conditions that constitutes Missing Information — and the one that does not.

What is: Section 1 DOB (MI), signature-block DOB (MI, because Section 1 DOB is also missing and can't back-fill it), and Device Type (MI — exactly one box must be checked); while Induction-only is not MI, since at least one of Induction or Maintenance satisfies the rule — though it should be confirmed with the HCP.


500

HCP requested SPBI with a valid HIPAA and HCP attestation. Copay card has been requested with all three attestation boxes checked. You notice on the Rx that two 'Initial' doses have been selected, 'Induction' dose skipped, and 'Maintenance Option B' selected. Can a copay card be assigned?

No, an MI case would need to be opened due to off-label dosing. Regardless of it being an SPBI, it is considered a deviation to assign a copay card before on-label dosing is obtained. 

500

Adult HIPAA signature block has 4 parts - signature, today's date, printed name, and DOB. By field, please indicate what is required, what can be taken from other parts of the form and where, and what is optional.

Today's date - if blank, HCP attestation date can be used. Can not be a future date, patient birthday, and considered a valid date. 

Printed name: if blank, it's acceptable. If name is written, it must match exactly a name on the enrollment form.

DOB -if blank or incorrect, can use DOB from section 1. 

500
