Describe the difference between a "participating provider" and a "non-participating provider."
What will be an ideal response?
A participating provider is usually a non-physician health care professional who provides services to individuals covered by a particular health plan and accepts the insurance company's approved fee for each service as payment in full for that service (that is, accepts assignment). A non-participating provider is usually a non-physician health care professional who does not contract with insurance companies and does not accept the insurance company's approved for services (that is, does NOT accept assignment).
