RE: Donor ins payment and consent form to contact their insurance.

[Guest guest]

We are working on having all our donors sign a consent form for the recipient's insurance company. I think this is a great idea and hope we will be implementing it soon.

Donor ins payment and consent form to contact their insurance.

Hello All,

We are in discussion about the donor services here.

# 1 - a recipient has recently informed me that her eghp will not pay for the

donor's services and her donor's insurance stated they would.

Per my co-worker it is illegal for the donor's insurance to pay when MC is

involved (recipient is pre-emptive- will apply after transplant for MC).

Is that true?

#2 - we are in the process of devising a consent form for our donor's to sign-that basically states - if needed - we will ask your consent to contact

your insurance company for the denial- to submit to the recipient's insurance company for payment.

Our clinical coordinator is curious if any other transplant program have their donors sign a similar consent form?

Thank you always for all your help.

Before you get a zillion emails asking you to send them a copy of your

consent form for the donor, I would like to ask if you could send it to the

group, as an attachment? This way, whoever wants it can make a copy for

themselves.

Thanks!

We are still working on our form, but as soon as it's completed I would be happy

to do so.

Have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
