Are you allowed to offer 'Grant Resources' to patients?

Hi Friends,

I have a QUESTION; Is it 'Legal' for billing agencies to refer patients to a 'Grant Fund' to help them pay their bills?

I do volunteer financial accounting work with Non-profits and grant administrators for rare diseases and funds. Since my mother passed from a terrible disease, its been a passionate purpose of mine to make sure that Patients are afforded every opportunity to good health care.

• I've seen medical doctors get HIPPAA Waivers to disclose patient info to other doctors...not sure if it applied to Billing too ?

Thoughts /Comments?

Thanks for your input !
